I'm a bit confused by something zsh is doing.

Test case:

sleep 1000 &
jobs -d &>/dev/null

Why does this still produce output?  Is there any way to redirect the
line that's still appearing on screen?  And what on earth is the
'shout' file descriptor tied to?   :)

Thanks!

Could be that jobs is using STERR not just STDOUT

Try redirecting STDERR, for example

lskdjf 2&>/dev/null

Produces no output (it should say "command not found" or somethingsimilar)
