Running a process in the background (Windrop)

Post by ka0n »

I got his problem, i need to run a program but i need the windrop to not wait till its finish (kinda like 10 hours), is there an especific command or something like it? The exec command locks the bot untill the process is finished..

Thanks for the help anyway :)
