Lots of features in Gnubg and unless you look everywhere in the code (My
apologies). I didn't realize there was a priority feature in Gnubg (Depends
on the platform and whether setpriority exists).
Setting the priority can be done issuing this command.
set priority nice [n]
That ultimately makes a call to gnubg's SetPriority and then the system
setpriority function.
I never issued this command before until now. On my linux box I get if I
issue the command directly I get "Permission denied" when running as non
root users (But works under root).
It seems like if setpriority fails. Gnubg considers it non fatal and
continues, so its causing no harm.
