The other day I wrote that it didn't work with tmux. But that
was incorrect, it was zsh that made it not work.

With bash, it works both ways (`suspend-frame', then fg) in
a plain Linux VT (tty) but also in a VT with tmux on top.

In zsh, suspend-frame doesn't work in a tmux pane but it does
work with a plain tty. However fg still doesn't work, it says
the by-now familiar 'no job control in this shell'.

zsh should be one of the more common shells these days, while
not as common as bash, of course. Still common enough to make
one hesitant about the degree of standardization in this case.
