Explanation
- Normally,
^z (read: ctrl-z) pauses the execution of the current foreground task. That doesn't work in an ssh session, because it is intercepted by the remote shell. ~^z is a special escape character for this case, to pause the ssh session and drop you back to the local shell.
- For all escape characters see
~?
- The
~ escape character must always follow a newline to be interpreted as special.
- See
man ssh for more details, search for ESCAPE CHARACTERS
