- No, this program, like NICE10, can only launch a new program with
- a specified priority.
-
- I also ask how to change the priority of an already running program.
-
- PSPM could formerly do this, but the version for 1.x does not work on
- os/2 2.0. Rumors of a 2.0-compatible release of this utility abound.
- If anyone has it, please send it to an archive site.
-
-
- On a related note, is there a way to disable the
- "foreground boost" without turning off dynamic priority variation
- altogether (ie. keeping the "i/o boost" and the "starvation boost")?
