is there a shell or a terminal emulator where you can queue commands while another command is running?

This is something that comes up for me constantly as well. "Oh it's late, I should have put systemctl suspend after this command aaa"

Maybe sending the command to the background then executing `wait && whatevercommandtoqueue` would work? Gonna test real quick.

It sorta works for fish, but only one time, because `wait` cannot be sent to a background task (makes sense, it might deadlock)

@inex Same for bash, except if you attempt to send `wait` into the background, it just immediately returns.

Alternaively, you can use fg instead of bg and wait. This way you can pause the process many times before it is finished.

@Mikle_Bond Oh excellent catch! Completely blanked on `fg` being a thing.

Thanks! ^^
