How can you suspend foreground and background job in unix?
You suspend a running (foreground) job by using the suspend keystrokes (usually ^Z). A background job can be suspended from the background if it understands the suspend or other user kill signals. In general, however, you have to bring the background program into the foreground and then suspend it by using the action listed above.
What is the use of fg command?
Hmm... "fg" is a bash shell built-in command so I'm assuming you are referring to it. All it does is "resume" the referenced job (or task if you prefer) in the foreground of the shell thus making it the current job (or task). Of course, "fg" is only applicable to a job started with job control enabled. In Unix and Linux shells that support job control, jobs may be suspended, moved to the background, moved to the foreground and suspended or paused jobs may be resumed. You could, I suppose, compare it to using a mouse to bring jobs into and out of focus on a GUI. I don't use GUIs a lot so I'm not sure how simple it is to suspend a job or task on a Windows system thus causing the task to cease being processed until it is resumed. It is trivial to do from within a bash shell however. Also, job control in Unix/Linux shells is not restricted to bash, sh, ksh, csh and many if not most other shells support job control. [JMH]
