Re: [PLUG] that's nice


you can then do something like

: "normal"
wmic process where name="firefox.exe" CALL setpriority " normal"  

: "above normal"
wmic process where name="reaper.exe" CALL setpriority "high priority"

to bump up what you're using

some of these are specific to my machine, feel free to substitute your afflicted processes
of course if you're not admin, you can't do much/enough to get more control of the console.

"Linux has a nice command, which can reduce the amount of resources a

What's it called?

Nice.

Yes, what is the nice program called.

It's nice.

I'm sure it is, but what's it called?

Nice.

Look, I understand it's nice to have this program, but what program?

Nice.

Nice.
