 Set or display resource limits of the shell and the processes started by
 the shell.  The value of var(limit) can be a number in the unit specified
-below or the value `tt(unlimited)'.  By default, only soft limits are

-hard limits instead of soft limits.  If the tt(-S) flag is given
-together with the tt(-H) flag set both hard and soft limits.  If no
-options are used, the file size limit (tt(-f)) is assumed.  If
-var(limit) is omitted the current value of the specified resources are
