There doesn't seem to be any way to suspend fish. Have I missed something?
Is this a bug, in that fish should suspend on C-Z (except for a login
shell, anyway)? A design decision? Or just something nobody has ever asked
for?
Thanks,
mike

Well, there are lots of alternative ways to do this that are better in
some cases. I pretty much stopped using screen (never used tmux)

function suspend

Seems to work like a charm. Unless someone objects before I get back to a
terminal, I'll submit a pull request

Hi Mike,
There doesn't seem to be a way to suspend a fish shell, ala the suspend
builtin in zsh, bash, etc. I'm wondering if this is a bug, and C-Z should
work (except in a login shell), or if it's a design feature. or if no one has
asked for it?
It works for me:

Brilliant. Thank you. I'm not a fish expert, so I
And to answer the implied question - C-Z isn't a fish thing, it's a tty
driver thing. It sends a TSTP signal to the controlling process. The
default action is to suspend the process, and transfer control back to the
first ancestor does some kind of job control. But you can get the same
effect
