Hey all you UNIX people, i'm having a problem with the nice command. I run a process, say " sudo nice 10 /Applications/Fire.app/Contents/MacOS/Fire.app/ ". This does not launch Fire at all, it simply fails to load and gives no error, it just exits with another prompt. Grrrrr.

This may not be the correct board for this, but I imagine a moderator will gat mad at me and move it if so.

I looked at the man page and it seems you need the -n flag. I tried it out and it works for me.

sudo nice -n 10 /Applications/Fire.app/Contents/MacOS/Fire.app

edit
Just noticed there was a / at the end. I don't think that should be there.

This should be on Just Tech, as (url="http://"http://www.evula.com")EVula(/url) said. It seems to be resolved now, so it's locked.

(Damnit, (url="http://"http://www.evula.com")EVula(/url) has infiltrated my posts!)
