bash vs csh

[Cesar Moya <cesar1907 yahoo com>]

Hello everyone:

Suppose I run a program under the bash shell from the
console in KDE or GNOME using a command like this

$ kedit prog1.c &

If I kill the console (using the mouse) from which I issue
that command, the process "kedit" also gets killed!!!).

However, if I do the same using the csh shell, I do not
have that problem.  (the console is killed but not the
process "kedit").

Why the bash shell cannot keep that process running?

Cesar
