csh question

OK, here's another good one:  in csh you can type ctrl-Z to stop a process
and then use fg to return to it, right?  Now, is there any way to (before
you return to the process using fg) pipe some output to that process in
some way so that it will be like the process itself received that as input?
Either through redirecting that process' standard input from the outside
or piping some output some way directly to that process?

Thanks for any help (and if there *is* some way I can do something similar in
a shell other than csh, I'd be interest in that as well, especially in sh or
ksh since those are relatively universal)
