I'm sure there are lots of ways of doing this, but one that I am fond of
is using 'screen'. 'screen' is a text-mode window manager. One of the
nice features is to be able to 'detatch'. Once you detatch, the screen
session continues to run, and you can log off. Later, you can log back
in, and re-attach to it as if you had never left.
Since screen can manage multiple terminal sessions within itself, you only
need to run screen once and leave it running.
As a quickie...
once you run screen, you can detatch using "C-A d"
you can then re-attach to it using "screen -r"
