Why do you care ? Do not run in the backround if you do not want to - it doesn't matter. The first '&' is related to redirection of STDERR. Have you ever heard of STDOUT and STDERR redirection ? Do you understand what the '1>configure.log 2>&1' mean in the suggested ./configure <whatever_your_args> 1>configure.log 2>&1 & command line ? Could you please stop slandering my tool - you appear not to understand the command line at all and it appears that your not understanding the command line is not tool-specific. You appear not to understand for both my tool and standard 'configure'. --Sergei.
