This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0000_01BFE410.BDA24040 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit What shell are you running? Because I know for a fact that tcsh has a build-in nice command with a different syntax than /usr/bin/nice. And the man page is for /usr/bin/nice. Just type "which nice" to determine whether your nice is an internal shell command or an external binary. -- Chris -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Alban Hertroys Sent: Sunday, July 02, 2000 8:09 AM To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: man nice(1) Is it just me or is the man page for nice in error? It says I have to specify a nice value of (+)20 as "nice -20" and a nice value of -20 as "nice --20". running "nice -20" results in a nice value of -20, though, while "nice --20" says: nice: Badly formed number. Eventually it turned out I had to do "nice +20" ... The man page of renice does state the nice value parameters correctly, which causes a confusing difference between the two commands. This is with a somewhat older 4.0-STABLE. I found this when trying a buildworld "nicely", as my system hottens up a tiny bit to much somewhere (probably my pci viper550 with bad fan) causing spontaneous reboots after a couple of hours. -- Alban Hertroys http://wit401310.student.utwente.nl - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I think, therefore I drink. - Lazarus - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message ------=_NextPart_000_0000_01BFE410.BDA24040 Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature; name="smime.p7s" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smime.p7s" MIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHAqCAMIACAQExCzAJBgUrDgMCGgUAMIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHAQAAoIII7jCCAqEw ggIKoAMCAQICAwJd6jANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFADCBlDELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdl c3Rlcm4gQ2FwZTEUMBIGA1UEBxMLRHVyYmFudmlsbGUxDzANBgNVBAoTBlRoYXd0ZTEdMBsGA1UE CxMUQ2VydGlmaWNhdGUgU2VydmljZXMxKDAmBgNVBAMTH1BlcnNvbmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIFJTQSAx OTk5LjkuMTYwHhcNMDAwNDA0MTEwODI1WhcNMDEwNDA0MTEwODI1WjBEMR8wHQYDVQQDExZUaGF3 dGUgRnJlZW1haWwgTWVtYmVyMSEwHwYJKoZIhvcNAQkBFhJjam0yQGVhcnRobGluZy5uZXQwgZ8w DQYJKoZIhvcNAQEBBQADgY0AMIGJAoGBAM5lx40uF+cAlXOfMgeto7Ajjl7UII/J8YsIYoiKeUjI WMFNiOFBvqUFWl7+eURXoMpY3iP10kqwl+QjyG3pnLAAj3C9WmSUHJzT+xIb5VFtVr3r4UWFoL6N Ov37j+WqaNyz1r09UhWbqE/sX+0LYKtr9Uk/Gmd8GOuAUjG5E7/pAgMBAAGjUDBOMB0GA1UdEQQW MBSBEmNqbTJAZWFydGhsaW5nLm5ldDAMBgNVHRMBAf8EAjAAMB8GA1UdIwQYMBaAFIir8WCDZlX0 5FjHRh3AYb0j18OMMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBAUAA4GBAIfGiPOf/H7t4bGtjun7S6DYvJ5juEDW1bnM P13vEdv5dpzNlSgN5oE7fT5ZcADH8cJ07rfC78fBdcTm/QpcJo2OgZffqbW9zlZK5576wDl1bHdS oR3sfZFxqvtj1f4MnJ/2RssJ/IN6d/DkuDOBUmIJf8C9WsGHpoSIdLM6a9OgMIIDFDCCAn2gAwIB AgIBCzANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFADCB0TELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdlc3Rlcm4gQ2Fw ZTESMBAGA1UEBxMJQ2FwZSBUb3duMRowGAYDVQQKExFUaGF3dGUgQ29uc3VsdGluZzEoMCYGA1UE CxMfQ2VydGlmaWNhdGlvbiBTZXJ2aWNlcyBEaXZpc2lvbjEkMCIGA1UEAxMbVGhhd3RlIFBlcnNv bmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIENBMSswKQYJKoZIhvcNAQkBFhxwZXJzb25hbC1mcmVlbWFpbEB0aGF3dGUu Y29tMB4XDTk5MDkxNjE0MDE0MFoXDTAxMDkxNTE0MDE0MFowgZQxCzAJBgNVBAYTAlpBMRUwEwYD VQQIEwxXZXN0ZXJuIENhcGUxFDASBgNVBAcTC0R1cmJhbnZpbGxlMQ8wDQYDVQQKEwZUaGF3dGUx HTAbBgNVBAsTFENlcnRpZmljYXRlIFNlcnZpY2VzMSgwJgYDVQQDEx9QZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFp bCBSU0EgMTk5OS45LjE2MIGfMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4GNADCBiQKBgQCzaVqX1NAWC3q1xV3p IZwjcs0STEv3fs/H+8pyJPRCUqxXleN7YXoXhOf9cjk4lLTq7WWnkgZeveBl9hm7lHl2TD65aHB1 hBz0EXQAvAUsTwkDFzHM9EHUcsamXeKIRLCLLsRN8fDWhT5s85WUeJF+QOmc0Y0VV47Cc+Uw3kb1 TwIDAQABozcwNTASBgNVHRMBAf8ECDAGAQH/AgEAMB8GA1UdIwQYMBaAFHJJwnM0xlX0C3ZygX53 9IfnxrIOMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBAUAA4GBAGvGWekx+um27LED2N9ycv6RYEjqxlXde/BnjsZhcOdt wqU32J23FyhWBYvdXHVvxpGQxmxmcRPQEHxrkW+G4CE2LcHX6rIJrc8tbcaDUpv7u/6ch538t+l0 kuRcl678fqzKDW9yemcsa3P1hvmd9QBu9B0Hzp2egmMp75MJflXeMIIDLTCCApagAwIBAgIBADAN BgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFADCB0TELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdlc3Rlcm4gQ2FwZTESMBAG A1UEBxMJQ2FwZSBUb3duMRowGAYDVQQKExFUaGF3dGUgQ29uc3VsdGluZzEoMCYGA1UECxMfQ2Vy dGlmaWNhdGlvbiBTZXJ2aWNlcyBEaXZpc2lvbjEkMCIGA1UEAxMbVGhhd3RlIFBlcnNvbmFsIEZy ZWVtYWlsIENBMSswKQYJKoZIhvcNAQkBFhxwZXJzb25hbC1mcmVlbWFpbEB0aGF3dGUuY29tMB4X DTk2MDEwMTAwMDAwMFoXDTIwMTIzMTIzNTk1OVowgdExCzAJBgNVBAYTAlpBMRUwEwYDVQQIEwxX ZXN0ZXJuIENhcGUxEjAQBgNVBAcTCUNhcGUgVG93bjEaMBgGA1UEChMRVGhhd3RlIENvbnN1bHRp bmcxKDAmBgNVBAsTH0NlcnRpZmljYXRpb24gU2VydmljZXMgRGl2aXNpb24xJDAiBgNVBAMTG1Ro YXd0ZSBQZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFpbCBDQTErMCkGCSqGSIb3DQEJARYccGVyc29uYWwtZnJlZW1h aWxAdGhhd3RlLmNvbTCBnzANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOBjQAwgYkCgYEA1GnX1LCUZFtx6UfYDFG2 6nKRsIRefS0Nj3sS34UldSh0OkIsYyeflXtL734Zhx2G6qPduc6WZBrCFG5ErHzmj+hND3EfQDim AKOHePb5lIZererAXnbr2RSjXW56fAylS1V/Bhkpf56aJtVquzgkCGqYx7Hao5iR/Xnb5VrEHLkC AwEAAaMTMBEwDwYDVR0TAQH/BAUwAwEB/zANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFAAOBgQDH7JJ+Tvj1lqVnYiqk 8E0RYNBvjWBYYawmu1I1XAjPMPuoSpaKH2JCI4wXD/S6ZJwXrEcp352YXtJsYHFcoqzceePnbgBH H7UNKOgCneSa/RP0ptl8sfjcXyMmCZGAc9AUG95DqYMl8uacLxXK/qarigd1iwzdUYRr5PjRznei gTGCApIwggKOAgEBMIGcMIGUMQswCQYDVQQGEwJaQTEVMBMGA1UECBMMV2VzdGVybiBDYXBlMRQw EgYDVQQHEwtEdXJiYW52aWxsZTEPMA0GA1UEChMGVGhhd3RlMR0wGwYDVQQLExRDZXJ0aWZpY2F0 ZSBTZXJ2aWNlczEoMCYGA1UEAxMfUGVyc29uYWwgRnJlZW1haWwgUlNBIDE5OTkuOS4xNgIDAl3q MAkGBSsOAwIaBQCgggFLMBgGCSqGSIb3DQEJAzELBgkqhkiG9w0BBwEwHAYJKoZIhvcNAQkFMQ8X DTAwMDcwMjE0MzE1NFowIwYJKoZIhvcNAQkEMRYEFMwUdfyDR03O6RKtoQ7yXIaUSz0BMDwGCSqG SIb3DQEJDzEvMC0wBwYFKw4DAgcwDQYIKoZIhvcNAwICASgwBwYFKw4DAhowCgYIKoZIhvcNAgUw ga0GCSsGAQQBgjcQBDGBnzCBnDCBlDELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdlc3Rlcm4gQ2Fw ZTEUMBIGA1UEBxMLRHVyYmFudmlsbGUxDzANBgNVBAoTBlRoYXd0ZTEdMBsGA1UECxMUQ2VydGlm aWNhdGUgU2VydmljZXMxKDAmBgNVBAMTH1BlcnNvbmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIFJTQSAxOTk5LjkuMTYC AwJd6jANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAASBgMRuFo9aLEfb6NW3RK3eVIi+bvzt3mPasJjfUpbu4JibNjRf e0WYcjsFz4UuKTBakl+BTF6qCAF//I8JI+EfG4ujXcwL+AF3yw2GpZZSTWmgtp/XFOgo314Oqowc sfvGrLqGC2PUfJlTfmPuqFPWBTAPd8cAln7agOqzZF/bxeYkAAAAAAAA ------=_NextPart_000_0000_01BFE410.BDA24040-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
