I am running ksh in my terminal - have been for many years
and I am used to it and like it :)

Have a question about backgrounding a job

I ran a short script as follows:

for i in *.fin; do
cp $i  Recent{$i#updated}
done

The I decided to background it by typing
Ctl-Z followed by bg<CR>

Well it worked just fine as expected.
Later, I came back and typed
fg<CR>
job came to foreground.
I killed it with Ctrl-C
And to be sure, I typed
$ jobs
[1] + 27209     Running                 for i in *fin; do;cp $i  
Recent{$i#updated};done

So I tried to see what process is pid 27209
$ ps -p 27209
   PID TTY          TIME CMD

OK, there is no such process running.

So,  ksh-20110208-3.fc14.i686    has a bug.
The man page betrays no info on support web page.

Should I open a bug in bugzilla.redhat.com or some other more specific site?
