Usually I would background the foreground process using ctrl-z, but when running in tmux with the prefix key bound to z, then obviously ctrl-z just invokes tmux. Likewise if I try to escape the ctrl-z by hitting 'ctrl-z z' then it switches tmux panes (as designed).



Is there another way I can background then foreground process in tmux without having to change the prefix key?
