longDescription = ''
The `time' command runs another program, then displays
information about the resources used by that program, collected
by the system while the program was running. You can select
which information is reported and the format in which it is
shown, or have `time' save the information in a file instead of
displaying it on the screen.
The resources that `time' can report on fall into the general
categories of time, memory, and I/O and IPC calls. Some systems
do not provide much information about program resource use;
`time' reports unavailable information as zero values.
