To: PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU X-RCPT-TO: Status: R X-UIDL: 277600436 X-Evolution-Source: pop://mailinglist%40farcite.net@mail.farcite.net/ X-Evolution: 0000069d-0000 Extracted from the "bash" man page: /"Background/processes are those whose process group ID differs from the terminal's; such processes are immune to keyboard-generated signals. Only foreground processes are allowed to read from or write to the terminal. Background processes which attempt to read from (write to) the terminal are sent a*SIGTTIN (SIGTTOU)* signal by the terminal driver, which, unless caught, suspends the process." So, your solution is more likeky to be found in another active TTY as suggested by Amaury Jacquot.
