I want to run a long running gap program nohup and then log out
while it runs. However, in this situation, gap should die
when it finishes executing the program.

When I write a program called myprogram.g and execute it with

gap myprogram.g

the gap prompt returns after gap finishes reading myprogram.g
in spite of that I put

quit;

or 

QUIT;

in the last line of myprogram.g. Apparently Read ignores
the quit command?

Does anyone know how to run gap noninteractivly?

I used to be "with it," but then they changed what "it" was. Now, what
I'm "with" isn't "it," and what's "it" seems weird and scary to
me. It'll happen to you...
