If I log in and run a program, that program is the child of the process
which is my login shell. If I run the child in the background and then
log out, the child becomes an orphan. If I log in again, the new login
shell is not the parent of the orphaned child and it would be useful
to be able to adopt the orphan and make the new shell the parent. 
Among other things, it would allow one to bring the child into the
foreground. Apparently one can't do this in BSD or AT&T UNIX systems.
My question is whether one will be able to do it in GNU ?
