5.4 Listing suspended and background processes

When a process is running, backgrounded or suspended, it will be entered onto a list along with a job number. To examine this list, type

% jobs

An example of a job list could be

[1] Suspended sleep 1000
[2] Running netscape
[3] Running matlab

To restart (foreground) a suspended processes, type

% fg %jobnumber

For example, to restart sleep 1000, type

% fg %1

Typing fg with no job number foregrounds the last suspended process.
