Use: nohup exu ladedah.exu arg1 > /dev/null &
"nohup" causes the program run to ignore hangup-signals when you exit
"> /dev/null" prevents the program from suspending in case of tty output
"&" causes it to be run in the background

No, and the subject has been debated heavily here already.  PEu supports
"crash routines" which are called before the erred program terminates, but
you cannot recover to the original routine.
