The command  jobs is  used with the  Korn shell's job-control  feature.  It
prints information  about all background jobs.   The information printed is
in the following format:

    %num [+-] pid status command

num indicates  the job number,  + indicates that  the job is  the ``current
job''; - indicates that it is  the ``previous job''.  pid gives the process
identifier of  the job.  status  indicates the status of  the job.  command
gives the job's command line.
