According to the manual:
(I) Typing the suspend character (typically ^Z, Control-Z)
while a process is running causes that process to be
stopped and returns control to bash.
(II) An OR list has the form
command1 || command2
command2 is executed if and only if command1
returns a non-zero exit status. The return status of
AND and OR lists is the exit status of the last
command executed in the list.
In the following example:
esoriano@omac:~$ sleep 10 || echo hey
^Z
[5]+ Stopped sleep 10
hey
esoriano@omac:~$
there are two different issues:
(I) echo is executed when sleep is suspended, i.e., command2 is
executed before command1 exits.
(II) the exit status of command1 (when the job is resumed) will
be 0 and command2 is (was) executed.
