Product Description:

A very simple but extremely handy little script to set the priority of your (and other) processes through the 'renice' UNIX command. (e.g., perhaps you would like Classic to get less processor time, etc.)

If you aren't sure what renice does, please go to your Terminal application and type "man renice" before using this script. This script is intended to be used by those that know what all these terms mean, but want a quicker way to do it.

What's new in this version:

  • Completely re-written in AppleScript Studio.
  • Ability to see any individual process or all processes.

Works great on my Intel Mac under Rosetta. Much easier than the command line.
