This has been bugging me for a while. How can I suspend a job that is
taking longer than I expect and then put it in the background and then
redirect stdio and/or stderr to a file (or /dev/null) ?
example:
wget http://slowserver/bigfile.tgz
1% done and its been 2 minutes
^Z
zsh: 25317 suspended wget http://slowserver/bigfile.tgz
bg %1 >/dev/null 2>&1
nope does not work that just redirects the output of bg not the job that
was bged.
Any suggestions? (besides using screen).
