<h2>4.3 Background mode<a name="basics_daemon"></a></h2>
<p>When the daemon mode is enabled in the notification configuration menu
(see <a href="#options_notify">Notify-bar settings</a>), <code>calcurse</code> will stay
in background when the user interface is not running. In background mode,
<code>calcurse</code> checks for upcoming appointments and runs the user-defined
notification command when necessary. When the user interface is started again,
the daemon automatically stops.</p>
<p><code>calcurse</code> background activity can be logged (set the
<code>notify-daemon_log</code> variable in the notification configuration
<a href="#options_notify">menu</a>), and in that case, information about the daemon
start and stop time, reminders' command launch time, signals received... will be written
in the <code>daemon.log</code> file (see section <a href="#basics_files">files</a>).</p>
<p>
Using the <code>--status</code> command line option (see section
<a href="#basics_invocation_commandline">Command line arguments</a>),
one can know if <code>calcurse</code> is currently running in background or not.
If the daemon is running, a message like the following one will be displayed (the pid of
the daemon process will be shown):
<pre>calcurse is running in background (pid 14536)</pre>
<p class="rq"><span class="valorise">Note:</span>
To stop the daemon, just send the <code>TERM</code> signal to it, using a command such as:
<code>'kill daemon_pid'</code>, where <span class="emp">daemon_pid</span> is the process id
of the daemon (14536 in the above example).
