.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Nice
executes
.I command
with low scheduling priority.

The default
.I number
is 10.
.PP
The super-user may run commands with
priority higher than normal
by using a negative priority,
e.g. `\-\-10'.
.PP
.I Nohup
executes
.I command
immune to hangup and terminate signals from the controlling terminal.
The priority is incremented by 5.
.PP
Any output not explicitly redirected is appended to
the file `nohup.out' in the current directory.

Quoted

don't work right in all cases.
The difficulty may be avoided by quoting the

with arguments in inner quotes.
