I'm 50:50 regarding the usefulness of --verbose.
Writing "killed PRG after N seconds elapsed" sounds like a useful
message, yet I'm afraid that then other requests may follow soon
which may really bloat the code, e.g.
$ timeout --verbose 10 sleep 5
timeout: child process terminated after 5.012 seconds.
As it's easy to have a wrapper for the original request, I'd rather
not add it.
BTW: timeout shares stdout/stderr with its child; therefore,
wouldn't the interleaved output be problematic?
Have a nice day,
Berny
