Equivalent of pausing (CTRL-Z bindkey) in shell-mode

Question

Let's say that I run a process in the foreground, I then wish to pause it, and maybe assign it to the background. In normal C-shell, it is very easily done. I just press C-z, and then I input the command bg &. How can I achieve the same in emacs shell-mode?

Answer 1

C-cC-z, which runs comint-stop-subjob, is the shell-mode equivalent.

Use C-hm from your shell buffer to see other bindings on that prefix which may be of interest.
