Interesting.  How do you use it with the generated scripts?

I've been thinking about adding a "java" shellscript which would the
simply do

exec timeout 1200 /real/path/to/java "$@"

and move that to the front of my nightly Gump script's PATH, but I'm
sure there is a simpler way.

sh gen.sh -cp "/home/rubys/bin/timeout 1200"

Search gen.sh for "cmd-prefix" to see how it works.

Enjoy!
