Hello, 

In my current prompt I have a list of background jobs (if there are
any). This works like this:
    myjobs=${(pj:\,:)${(k)jobstates}}
 
And gives a list like: 1,2

Now my question, is there any possibility to include the current job
(+ sign) and previous job (- sign) in this output? Like this: 1-,2+

Is this possible? If been fighting with $jobstates all week, but I've
been unable to extract multiple fields from this array.

thanks in advance,
