I was puzzling as to why this allows jobs|less to work but not (jobs) or cat <(jobs) when I realised that if I have two background jobs, (jobs) will print the second job only. So perhaps this isn't quite right yet? I don't really understand it though so I'm not sure why. Hopefully something trivial because it'd be nice to have this working. And, a minor point is that the clone module didn't compile - just the missing new parameter to clearjobtab.
