nohup(1p) ignores the SIGHUP signal when executing a given utility. It would be nice to have a utility to ignore various signals (SIGINT would be much desired), like nohup(1p) but more featureful, to replace dj -n and the proposed swab -f (that I will be removing).

airpods-in(1), force(1), green-light(1), heedlessly(1), uninterruptable(1) are all ideas I have for a name, ranging from terrible to not so terrible.

I quite like heedlessly -cd doas root dj -i img.bin -o /dev/sda. (-c ("cancelled") for SIGINT, -d ("disconnected") for SIGHUP). A long name may be a concern for other reasons but for useability I'm fine with it because it should be used sparingly and consciously.

[nohup(1p)](https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/nohup.1p.html) ignores the SIGHUP signal when executing a given utility. It would be nice to have a utility to ignore various signals (SIGINT would be much desired), like nohup(1p) but more featureful, to replace `dj -n` and the proposed `swab -f` (that I will be removing). airpods-in(1), force(1), green-light(1), heedlessly(1), uninterruptable(1) are all ideas I have for a name, ranging from terrible to not so terrible. I quite like `heedlessly -cd doas root dj -i img.bin -o /dev/sda`. (`-c` ("cancelled") for SIGINT, `-d` ("disconnected") for SIGHUP). A long name may be a concern for other reasons but for useability I'm fine with it because it should be used sparingly and consciously.

What about headless(1)?

What about `headless(1)`?
