#14 Suspend/resume fink commands
On the fink-users list there recently was a thread about how the installation process of fink can be paused.
My answer for shell usage was
- Ctrl+Z to pause
- fg command to resume
There was speculation about whether or not this would also be possible for FinkCommander. Sylvain Cuaz gave the answer:
>Yes it should be possible : just find the pid of the fink process (by 'ps aux |
>grep fink' or something) then 'kill -STOP thePid', which is similar to ^Z. And
>when you want to continue it 'kill -CONT thePid', which is similar to 'fg'.
If you run out of ideas what to implement, maybe such a feature would be useful. Just an idea...
