Running the process in the background is handled by the OS. In my
preferred shell (bash) i simply do:
cnee tons-of-args &
note the '&'
if you want to replay to another display, either do it the X way:
export DISPLAY=host-to-replay-to:0
cnee -tons-of-args
or do it using --display option
cnee -tons-of-args --display host-to-replay-to:0

Not sure what you mean with display. I assume display is in X
terminology. If so, yes you do need a display to replay to.
If you however want to automate stuff and not have a physical display I
suggest you check out the beatiful program Xvfb.
