: I'm still of the opinion that having a tool that resembles "nice" that

: People

: new
: to the whole Unix thing.

I agree and I haven't forgotten about it. It's just that I'm quite busy with
real life and the little time I got I try to spend it on what I consider
more important things.

Eventually I'll rename ionice to ioprio; it should make more sense to
people. Anyways, thanks for the reminder. Oh, and if anyone else with a
commit bit feels like it, just go ahead and do the rename :)

Cheers,
Alex Hornung
