[Linux-disciples] Smarter suspending

[Stephen R Laniel]

Sometimes I'll suspend one instance of mutt, go off to do
something else, forget I had suspended mutt, then start a
new instance of mutt. I did this three times today without
realizing it, and every time I tried to quit out of the
terminal I got 'there are stopped jobs' errors; every
stopped job was another copy of mutt.

What's the best way around this? If a copy of mutt (or any
full-screen application, say) is suspended and I try to
start a new one, I'd like to unsuspend the suspended copy.
Is there an easy to way to do this?
