10/* Notes:
11 * Setting an absolute priority was obsoleted in SUSv2 and removed
12 * in SUSv3. However, the common linux version of renice does
13 * absolute and not relative. So we'll continue supporting absolute,
14 * although the stdout logging has been removed since both SUSv2 and
15 * SUSv3 specify that stdout isn't used.
16 *
17 * This version is lenient in that it doesn't require any IDs. The
18 * options -p, -g, and -u are treated as mode switches for the
19 * following IDs (if any). Multiple switches are allowed.
