example is fine, i got confused doing more than one thing at a time bit confusing the 987 is not after the option like in SYNOPSIS On a helping / clarity point of vue,changing `The following example changes the priority of process` by something like `The following raise the priority of process to allocate more resources to it by 1 ` may be more helping to someone in a hurry -- -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Knowing is not enough; we must apply.
