Is the major difference when implementing a background command just that the parent process doesn't wait for the child to complete? What happens if the parent requires the child to be done or killed before running? 

Is there anywhere we can read about these processes? I could not find a good explanation in the online chapters stated in the spec (and actually the same with pipelines).
