geniusj, that is exactly what my program does. It is a GUI program that calls on ps to get PID, PPID, nice value, user and process name. It displays this in a table. There's a simple slider with labels(high, normal, low) and a button(set). you select the process you want to change the...

you guys are mind readers! that sounds/looks way more functional.

http://www.1avenue.com/thenamethief/ ..I hope. I guess I'm too lazy to get an idisk account. Is that .command thing foreal? I had to bounce into OS9 so I can't try it right now but for some reason I don't think it'll work in this case. I s'pose it can't hurt to try though. I am getting the...

Okay, I'm done....for the most part. The only thing left, I guess, is to add a way to su from the GUI. I'm waiting for the developer tools to land on my porch(due tuesdayish) so for now it's only runnable from the command line with the following(assuming it's in your home directory); java...

Okay, I figured it out... I'm using "ps axO ppid,nice,user" to get the info I need to displa. This gets put into a table where the user can select an item to renice. This way I can keep the table updated without much extra work and zero guessing(ntpd is always at -12?). This program gives...

worked ok with a 970C. I noticed the quality is shot and it's slower than snot..but it's a good start!

I wrote up a GUI for renice...it works ok but I forgot to add the negative numbers. It shouldn't be hard to fix though. I just haven't got back to that project yet. The reason I asked if there was a way to tell what the priorities are before you change them is cause I want to display that...

thanks for the response. I noticed while messing with renice as an admin(not root) I can lower the priority on things but cannot raise them. I looked around for a while and found a link or two that said that is a bug. Not too much of a problem. How do I get the priority of "PID" before I...

I'm looking to write up a UI for getting/setting priorities. The UI and sending off commands isn't the hard part. I've been experimenting with nice an renice(after reading the manual) and still don't quite understand it. If someone knows how this works and can help that'd be great! thanks.

The UI is basially done and I can call the commands(tested with cd, ls, and others) but I'm still trying to learn just how nice and renice work. If someone wants to help out that would be great. Anything on priority control would help. thanks in advance! [Edited by IamBob on 11-02-2000 at...

There is a way to do this with the command line tools, I think. I'm looking into it and if I find anything I'll probably end up making a UI for this.

some time ago..I had had bruce eckel's book in pdf for a good 3 months and didn't know it then went and got the book! UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName()); seems to only work if you don't create any swing components before you call it. If anyone has gotten...
