     renice newnice pid1 [ pid2 ...  pidn ]

DESCRIPTION
     _R_e_n_i_c_e will assign _p_i_d_1 , ..., _p_i_d_n a ``niceness'' of _n_e_w_n_-
     _i_c_e.  Positive niceness means a lower scheduling priority.
     Negative niceness means a high priority.  The super-user may
     renice any process to any value.  Other users may renice
     their own processes to any value greater than the current
     value.
