Problem

In interactive mode (in Octave, gnuplot, R, etc.) I occasionally press Control + z by mistake. This pauses the program and kicks me back to the terminal. Is it possible to re-enter the original interactive mode (with all the stored variables)? To reproduce: How can I recover my session with the variable defined?

Error Output
