given the following command line
	cmd & stty tostop & wait ; fg
``cmd'' produces output and takes a minute
or so to produce it, therefore the stty
exits successfully before it. i would expect
that csh would run both of the 1st two commands
in the background and do the wait until ``cmd''
tries to do some output whereupon it would be
stopped and then the fg would be executed and
you'd get attached to ``cmd''. this is not
what happens. as an example try the above and
use the following shell script for ``cmd'':
	#! /bin/sh
	sleep 10
	echo "hello, world"
be sure to do an ``stty -tostop'' beforehand
in case you have tostop set.
