nchancock Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 okay here's the situatiion... Say I started a prcess from the command line as such: sudo ./my_process & and then closed the terminal window. Then later I wanted to open another window and "de-background" that process so that I could pass it commands (like ctrl-c, etc...) or snag its output, what would be the command? I know that I could use kill -SIG*** <process id> but that's not exactly what I want to do. Any help would be appreciated. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
