An AppleScript that may give OS X a speed boost
Authored by: rpitcairn on Apr 02, '03 10:50:30PM

I tried this last script by Michael but am not knowledgeable to know how to do it correctly.
I finally got a response in Terminal after tweaking the command a bit. Here is what I put it and what I got back:
[USERNAMESComputer:~] USERNAME script "sudo renice -15 -u USERNAME" password "PASSWORD" with administrator privileges
Script started, output file is sudo renice -15 -u USERNAME.

Of course I have edited out my name and password so you can assume I put in the correct ones. My question is if the response about the script started means that I was successful in doing it?

sudo renice -15 -u USER_NAME
is all you would enter in the Terminal. The notation above is for if you are making an Applescript.
