+# nice(1)
+
+Adjust `niceness` of a new command or running process.
+
+Niceness influences the scheduling priority and ranges between:
+- `-20` most favorable
+- `19` least favorable
+
+```sh
+# Adjust niceness +5 for the launched process.
+nice -n 5 yes
+
+# Adjust niceness of running process.
+renice -n 5 -p PID
+```
