- I love my 3b1, except for the job control. I'm used to killing a job
- with C-c; this doesn't seem to ever work. Even worse, the commands
- jobs and fg don't exist. Suppose you stop a job, for instance by
- suspending emacs in order to compile the file. How can you ever get
- back to it? The command ps gives the process id, which is fine if I
- want to kill the job, but I don't know how to resume it and get back
- to emacs.

- Thanks,
