Description

Foreground commands can be detached and supervised enough to behave like Unix daemons. This is useful for scripts or older programs that need background execution in a simple server setup.

Process daemonization changes logging, working directory, user permissions, and shutdown behavior. Test the exact command before relying on it for critical services.
