Added a feature to `fancy-ctrl-z` which, if and only if there are precisely two backgrounded jobs, switches between them (using `fg %-`) when bringing back something to the foreground.

# fancy-ctrl-z
|
|
|
|
Allows pressing Ctrl-Z again to switch back to the most recently backgrounded
|
|
job. If there are precisely two backgrounded jobs, Ctrl-Z will toggle between
|
|
them, bringing the other one back.
|
|
|
|
To use it, add `fancy-ctrl-z` to the `plugins` array in your `.zshrc` file:
|
|
|
|
```zsh
|
|
plugins=(... fancy-ctrl-z)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Motivation
|
|
|
|
I frequently need to execute random commands in my shell. To achieve it I pause
|
|
Vim by pressing Ctrl-Z, type command and press fg<Enter> to switch back to Vim.
|
|
The fg part really hurts me. I just wanted to hit Ctrl-Z once again to get back
|
|
to Vim. I could not find a solution, so I developed one on my own that
|
|
works wonderfully with ZSH.
