+<h1> The <tt>s6-nice</tt> program </h1>
+
+<p>
+ s6-nice executes into a program with an altered nice value.
+</p>
+
+<h2> Interface </h2>
+
+<pre>
+     s6-nice [ -I | -i ] [ -n <em>value</em> ] [ <em>prog...</em> ]
+</pre>
+
+<p>
+ s6-nice acts as the generic
+<a href="http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/nice.html">nice</a> utility.
+</p>
+
+<h2> Extra options </h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <tt>-I</tt>&nbsp;: loose. If the nice value cannot be set to <em>value</em>,
+print a warning message and exec into <em>prog...</em> anyway. This is the default. </li>
+ <li> <tt>-i</tt>&nbsp;: strict. If the nice value cannot be set to <em>value</em>,
+exit 111 with an error message.
+</ul>
+
+<h2> Posixness </h2>
+
+<p>
+ s6-nice <strong>is</strong> suitable as a Single Unix
