I know that a background job can be brought to foreground using 'fg' command. However, if I have a job that was submitted using 'nohup', is there some way to bring it to foreground?

Also, is there some special keystroke that brings a foreground job to background, instead of manually issuing 'bg' command? Thank you in

Nope. But if you had used the 'screen' program instead of nohup, you could use that.

It would require moving a process from one parent process to another, and I don't think that is possible.
