Answer»

Right answer is (b) False

The explanation is: Some shells DISPLAY a message when the NOHUP command is used. In these shells, nohup command sends the STANDARD output of the command to the file nohup.out. If you don’t get this message then you have to make sure that you’ve taken care of the output USING REDIRECTION, if necessary.
