Michael,

If you managed to background it by inadvertently pressing Ctrl+Z or
typing ":st" or something, then you should be able to get it back by
just typing "fg" at bash. Typing "jobs" will show you the processes
running under bash that might be backgrounded or suspended. "man
bash" and search for JOB CONTROL or something, will give you details
if you're intrigued.

Unless you suspended it somehow else, I can't help sorry.

Regards,

Bernard.
