+       * coreutils.texi (nice invocation): Document the "nice value", and
+       how it affects the scheduling priority.  (The old documentation
+       implied that the nice value equaled the scheduling priority, which
+       isn't accurate.)  Document that the range of nice values might
+       exceed -20..19.  Specify what happens when you give a nice value
+       that is out of range, or when you don't have permissions to lower
+       the nice value.  Bash doesn't have a builtin 'nice', so don't say
+       "most shells" have one.
