run sshx in the background

[Milo]

perhaps sshx -b would allow you to run a sshx session without blocking the current shell and instead running it in a background thread.

I might be misunderstanding — is it sufficient to just run sshx & to have it in the background for your use case?

I'm a bit hesitant about daemonizing processes; it takes a lot of care to do correctly in a way that doesn't accidentally leave processes hanging around as children of PID 1, especially for something as sensitive as sharing your terminal.

what if you want to get logs from the sshx client, along with what if i want to kill the process?
