nice will run a command with the selected priority, but it will fail to set a nice value lower than the current one (normaly 0). renice will change the nice value of an already running process and has the same limitations as nice. (But remember that root can do whatever he wants with priorities) And there is another very usefull program callend man. Try running "man nice" and "man renice". ;)
