    I was wondering if it's possible to prepend "time" and append "&" to all
    commands that I execute in bash. For example I'd like
    $ mozilla
    to exapand to
    $ time mozilla &
    to time it and execute it in the background. Anyone know if this is
    possible using bash, maybe with environment variables? It's quite
    inconvenient to type time before and & after every command that I execute.
    Thank you.
