How do you silent this one without a subshell. I just don't want to see the
"Terminated" output, but everything else in case there's error.

#!/bin/bash
sleep 60 &
P=$!
kill $P
sleep 1
exit


Currently, I'm doing it this way ...

#!/bin/bash
(
        sleep 60 &
        P=$!
        kill $P
        sleep 1
) 2>&1 | grep -v " Terminated"
exit


Thanks,
Jeff
