Often it is desirable to do something like:

% process
^Z
% bg
% disown $!

It's the disown that'll keep it alive if the controlling terminal
disappears (note that 'nohup' might be a more acceptable alternative, if
you have issues with using shell builtins):

nohup <process>

(this is another alternative)
