I'm looking for something like command1 ; command2 i.e. how to run command2 after command1 but I'd like to plan execution of command2 when command1 is already running.
It can be solved by just typing the command2 and confirming by Enter supposed that the command1 is not consuming standard input and that the command1 doesn't produce to much text on output making it impractical to type (typed characters are blended with the command1 output).
Generally what I do is: Ctrl+Z fg && command2
bg, to resume command1 in the background while you type out command2.fg && command2 to resume command1 in the foreground and queue up command2 afterwards if command1 succeeds. You can of course substitute ; or || for the && if you so desire.Collected from the Internet
