press ctrl + z, it will pause the program... then fire command 'bg'
it will start the program agin in background.
to see program running in background fire commands jobs ,
to bring back the program in foreground fire command fg.
man pages can tell you more on this .. how to bring specific program to for ground .

when any process is running stop the process by pressing ^z (ctrl+z). then it gives the job no.
then u can switch it to back ground by typing command bg %job_number (ex: bg %1)
if u want to get it back to foreground type fg %1.
try this...
