 ie. in OS/2 you could type "detach 'any command you wanted to run'"
 The command would run and the detached session would terminate with the command.
 An example would be "detach copy very.large.group.of.files h:"

I'm awfully new at this still, but in Linux wouldn't this be

" cp folder/*.* destination & "
