Subject: multiple background jobs of the same program
Date: Sat, 13 Sep 1997 20:26:46 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9709140326.AA21133@cryptica.UCSD.EDU> (raw)

Hi,

I often have multiple vi edit sessions going. When I do the completion
for fg (fg -j  -P % +) that shuffles through the list  of jobs, I only
get the name of the program, i.e.  vi, which is not very helpful since
there are multiple vi sessions going. One  way around this is to refer
to the jobs using the job number.

Anybody have  any suggestions? I'd really  like to use  the completion
for fg more productively.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
