-One tells the system to suspend it.  Yes, this does require some sort of
-facility for doing so.  No, it does not require mysterious signals with
-bizarre semantics, magic control characters, or any of the other sludge
-that job control brings along.  You've got other windows, remember -- you
-can use one of them to request the suspension, and to fiddle with the
-process thereafter.

How do I get the second window on my H19 here?

One of the things that bothers me about many of these fancy windowing
systems is that there is no way to dial in and use them.
