How to bring processes to focus?

[omega]

If i start something via a ssh terminal with command like:

./configure&


What command can i use to bring this process to the screen on another terminal given that i know the pid?

I don't think that works. You can get it back with 'fg' (but you probably knew that already). To transfer  applications between terminals you have to use a program like 'screen'.
