Can I use nohup on a shell script rather than a specific command?

If I have a shell script named shell.sh can I enter this at the command line:

$ nohup shell.sh

and the script will run to completion even if I log out? Or do I need to nohup every line in the script?

Yes. Do whatever you do to normally run the script, just put nohup in front of it.

If you normally run shell.sh, then yes, you can run nohup shell.sh.

If you instead do ./shell.sh you should nohup ./shell.sh.
