Importing books via command line *in the background*?

$

Hello,

I've been using a shell script on OS X to import ebooks using the command line tool like this:

imp="$CALIBREDIR/calibre $BOOKDIR/$book"
eval "$imp"

This works, but Calibre jumps to its front to do the import process. When importing a number of books it renders the computer unusable until all the imports are done.

Is there any way to tell Calibre to do its import in the background so this all happens silently?
