- This manual page documents the GNU version of nniiccee. Note
- that most shells have a built-in command by the same name
- and with similar functionality.
-
- If no arguments are given, nniiccee prints the current
- scheduling priority, which it inherited. Otherwise, nniiccee
- runs the given _c_o_m_m_a_n_d with its scheduling priority
- adjusted. If no _a_d_j_u_s_t_m_e_n_t is given, the priority of the
- command is incremented by 10. The superuser can specify a
- negative adjustment. The priority can be adjusted by nniiccee
- over the range of -20 (the highest priority) to 19 (the
- lowest).
