+.Sh NAME
+.Nm nice
+.Nd execute a utility with an altered scheduling priority
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm
+.Op Fl n Ar increment
+.Ar utility
+.Op Ar argument ...
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Nm
+runs
+.Ar utility
+at an altered scheduling priority.
+If an 
+.Ar increment 
+is given, it is used; otherwise
+an increment of 10 is assumed.
+The super-user can run utilities with priorities higher than normal by using
+a negative 
+.Ar increment .
+The priority can be adjusted over a
+range of -20 (the highest) to 20 (the lowest).
+.Pp
+Available options:
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Fl n Ar increment
+A positive or negative decimal integer used to modify the system scheduling
+priority of 
+.Ar utility.
+.El
+.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+The
+.Nm
+utility shall exit with one of the following values:
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It 1-125
+An error occurred in the 
+.Nm
+utility.
+.It 126
+The 
+.Ar utility
+was found but could not be invoked.
+.It 127
+The 
+.Ar utility
+could not be found.
+.El
+.Pp
+Otherwise, the exit status of 
+.Nm
+shall be that of 
+.Ar utility .
+.Sh COMPATIBILITY
+The historic 
+.Fl Ns Ar increment 
+option has been deprecated but is still supported in this implementation.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr csh 1 ,
+.Xr getpriority 2 ,
+.Xr setpriority 2 ,
+.Xr renice 8
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The
+.Nm
+utility conforms to 
+.St -p1003.2-92 .
+.Sh HISTORY
+A
+.Nm
+utility appeared in
+.At v6 .
+.Sh BUGS
+.Nm
+is built into
+.Xr csh  1
+with a slightly different syntax than described here.  The form
+.Ql nice +10
+nices to positive nice, and
+.Ql nice \-10
+can be used
+by the super-user to give a process more of the processor.
