Actually, I wonder if this really warrants a package on its own; AFAICS it just adds some sugar and error checking to something as basic as ,----[ reniced.sh ] | #!/bin/bash | grep -v '^#' "${1:-$HOME/.reniced" | | while read prio regex; do | renice $prio $(pgrep "$regex") | done `---- ... which is something I'd expect to find in ~/bin, but not as the single functionality of a Debian package.
