That reminds me of the support ticket I dealt with today.

How do you run a program using your product in the background?
For example,
progname -p ttyS0 ==> run the program
progname -p ttyS0 -b ==> run the program in the background
No more context, nothing. We make the product, not applications using it. The progname was of course nothing we would recognize. I took a guess from the command line that they were using Linux and replied how to start a process in the background.

Turns out I was wrong. Yes progname was their own application but they were not using Linux. They were using Android and the Linux solution did not work.

There. You have a real life example of something only Linux can do
