I've been learning about fish for the past two weeks.
Initially I thought that custom functions could do anything a "normal"
command cound do.
But today I learned that functions cannot be run in the background.
For example, if I write myfn.fish, I can execute it by just entering "myfn".
But I cannot run it in the background with "myfn &".
Also, if I'm running a long running function, I can't move it to the
background with ctrl-z.
Why are those not supported?
