NAME

       runalarm - enforce a time limit on execution of a process

SYNOPSYS

       runalarm [ -h ]

       runalarm [ -d ] [ -t timeout ] command [ args ]

DESCRIPTION

       runalarm  tries to execute a command and, if the subprocess does not exit before a timer expires, tries to terminate that subprocess.  Oth-
       erwise, the exit status of the command is returned.

USAGE

       -d

	      Debug mode; send log messages to standard error as well as to the system log.

       -t timeout

	      Specifies the duration, in seconds, for runalarm to allow the command to run.  The default is 1d duration (86400 seconds).

       -h

	      Prints some basic help.

BUGS

       Sending SIGALRM to runalarm before the timer has expired will cause the subprocess to be killed.
