RE: Ctrl-Z fails to suspend Windows programs


Might it wok the way you want if you write aliases or functions that supply
the & or launch with cygstart for the windows programs that you are likely
to use.  (Aliases would not work with programs to which you are supplying
arguments if the alias includes &.)

to
get my shell prompt back.
