print: Running in the background

• Remember this handy idiom:

        if ($opt_b) {
          fork && exit;
        }

• Here's another:

        1;
        1;
        1;

• This gives you somewhere to stop in the debugger

• There are three 1's because I sometimes type s one too many times

  • There's no need to plan ahead for the times you don't screw up
