[REQUEST] Redirect output to spare VC #231
Description
normally I can redirect (and background) a process and send its output to a spare unused virtual console with below:
2>&1 > /dev/tty8&
but when i do that with bashtop, nothing happens and then it gets paused. if i then "fg" the process it works but then obviously it ties up the current vc as well which is not what i want.
right now i have a syslog tail on /dev/tty7, and would love to have bashlog on tty8 so that I can just alt-f8 to look at it
