Is there a way to limit the bandwidth of one program? I have a 28.8k
PPP connection; it would be nice to be able to limit an FTP connection
to 75% or less of the bandwidth so that interactive performance
(remote email & netnews browsing) could stay high...

Something equivalent to the "nice" command would be nice :-)
Like: bwnice [-p maximum percent of bandwidth] [command [args...]]

Any guru interested?
