For Internal Xerox Use Only
1. Use
CommanderPriority puts up three buttons to set the priority of the process running a CommandTool. Buttons only appear on the CommandTool where the CommanderPriority command is invoked. The default buttons are "N" or normal, "F" for foreground and "B" for background. The button names can be changed by profile entries CommanderPriority.NormalButtonName, CommanderPriority.ForegroundButtonName, and CommanderPriority.BackgroundButtonName.
2. Bugs
No feedback is given as to the current priority of the process under a CommandTool. You cannot get CommanderPriority to remove its buttons.
