background jobs

suspend jobs

use CRTL + Z to push current process into background

background jobs detail

run jobs in terminal to see all jobs suspended in the background
it may like this (here I push two vim windows into background)

  1. ➜  ~ jobs
  2. [1]  - suspended  nvim test1.cpp
  3. [2]  + suspended  nvim test.cpp

pull back background jobs

use fg to restore the first jobs, in above example, fg will restore cpp
or use fg %x to restore no.x job
