pueue-pause: Pause a running task and stop all its direct children.
$ pueue pause --children ${task_id}
try on your machine

This command is used to pause a specific task and all its child processes in the "pueue" task manager.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "pueue" is the command-line utility for managing tasks in the "pueue" task manager.
  • "pause" is the action to be performed, which is pausing a task.
  • "--children" is an option that specifies that all child processes of the specified task should also be paused.
  • "${task_id}" is a placeholder for the ID of the task you want to pause. You need to replace it with the actual ID of the task you want to pause.

So when you execute this command, it will pause the specified task and all its child processes in the "pueue" task manager, effectively putting them on hold until you resume them.
