Hi all,
Am I the only one having troubles with the command nice ? I'm running: DragonFly mydfbsd 2.10-RELEASE DragonFly v2.10.1.1.gf7ba0-RELEASE #1: Mon Apr 25 19:51:42 UTC 2011 r...@pkgbox32.dragonflybsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC_SMP i386 Here the results (the last example is coming from the man page): mydfbsd# nice -5 date Tue Dec 6 22:11:19 CET 2011 mydfbsd# nice -n5 date nice: Badly formed number. mydfbsd# nice -n 5 date nice: Badly formed number. If I take the source code on the gitweb: http://gitweb.dragonflybsd.org/dragonfly.git/blob/HEAD:/usr.bin/nice/nice.c I compile it by doing "gcc nice.c" here the results: mydfbsd# ./a.out -5 date Tue Dec 6 22:11:08 CET 2011 mydfbsd# ./a.out -n5 date Tue Dec 6 22:11:11 CET 2011 mydfbsd# ./a.out -n 5 date Tue Dec 6 22:11:14 CET 2011 Why 2 different results ? It does not sounds that nice has been updated since them ... William
