* Package name : timelimit Version : 1.0 Upstream Author : Peter Pentchev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://devel.ringlet.net/sysutils/timelimit/ * License : Two-clause BSD Programming Lang: C Description : Simple utility to limit a process's absolute execution time The timelimit utility executes a command and terminates the spawned process after a given time with a given signal. A "warning" signal is sent first, then, after a timeout, a "kill" signal, similar to the way init(8) operates on shutdown. Actually, I already have a pretty much ready package for the timelimit utility which may only need minor fixes: dget -x http://devel.ringlet.net/sysutils/timelimit/debian/timelimit_1.0-1.dsc -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-amd64 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
