NAME
nice, nohup - run a command at low priority
SYNOPSIS
nice [ -number ] command [ arguments ]
nohup command [ arguments ]
DESCRIPTION
Nice executes command with low scheduling priority. If the number argument is present, the priority is incremented (higher numbers mean lower priorities) by that amount up to a limit of 20. The default number is 10.
The super-user may run commands with priority higher than normal by using a negative priority, e.g. `--10'.
Nohup executes command immune to hangup and terminate signals from the controlling terminal. The priority is incre- mented by 5. Nohup should be invoked from the shell with `&' in order to prevent it from responding to interrupts by or stealing the input from the next person who logs in on the same terminal.
