just run it normally

root@sf:~/oclHashcat-0.19# ./oclHashcat64.bin example.hash ?s?s?s?s ?s?s?s?s

[s]tatus [p]ause [r]esume [q]uit => s
...
Progress..: 20421688320/1406408618241 (1.40%)

by pressing "q" in the prompt it will show you the following line:

[s]tatus [p]ause [r]esume [q]uit => q
Quit. Use -s 15360 to restore session...

if you want to resume, just append the -s parameter to your original cmdline:

./oclHashcat64.bin example.hash ?s?s?s?s ?s?s?s?s -s 15360

[s]tatus [p]ause [r]esume [q]uit => s
