Message:

Kathy suggested that once the local gs2 server was launched, the x-term prompt should return immediately. This will also solve problems like leaving the server in an inconsistent state when Ctrl-C is sent to the GSI application but which does not propagate to the underlying apache web server it works with. Now the GSI is left running as a separate process in the background and the user will have to exit it through its close button which will ensure that the apache webserver is shut down.
