Hi all,

I want to pause a process, reboot my computer, and continue running that
processes. Is it possible? For example rendering a large POV-Ray render job can
take weeks, if not months. So it would be beneficial to be able to turn off your
computer temporarily (for whatever reason). I googled, but beyond "kill -STOP
pid" and "kill -CONT pid" (see below) couldn't find anything useful.

Thanks in advance,
