I have wrote a script to do some backup. There is a if block to ask confirmation:

read -p "Do you want to continue? [y/n]" confirm

if [[ ${confirm} == "n" ]]; then
    # do something like CTRL+Z, and halt until I run fg <job number> to activate this script
else
    # do some stuff
fi

can anyone help?

    You could use kill -STOP $$, or in bash you can use the suspend command.
