suspend

Suspend the execution of this shell until it receives a SIGCONT signal.

Syntax
      suspend [-f]
Key
-f Do not complain if this is a login shell; just suspend anyway.

The return status is 0 unless the shell is a login shell and -f is not supplied, or if job control is not enabled.

suspend is a bash built in command.

“Suspense is worse than disappointment” - Robert Burns
