I have tried this in OS X without problems. What system & configuration did
you use -- I am just curious, as this might affect other users of ECL who
run it as a daemon.

As I understand it, >& does not redirect input. The application can still
accept things from the keyboard. This is a problem because if you close the
terminal or type something, it might reach the background process...

If it is working for you, do not worry, but as I said, I would like to
reproduce your setup, just in case there is something deeper behind these
symptoms.
