# The `s6-nice` program

s6-nice executes into a program with an altered nice value.

## Interface

         s6-nice [ -I | -i ] [ -n value ] [ prog... ]

s6-nice acts as the generic nice utility.

## Extra options

- `-I` : loose. If the nice value cannot be set to value, print a warning message and exec into prog... anyway. This is the default.
- `-i` : strict. If the nice value cannot be set to value, exit 111 with an error message.

## Posixness

s6-nice is suitable as a Single Unix nice program.
