these commands because both give different results

as per priority rule we can set priority upto 0-99

but top never shows this high priority

Hello Ankit,

I use top mostly. Tried your two commands and saw what the results
were. I am a newbie so I cant explain why myself but I am also
curious. I noticed that if you run the "ps -Al" command with the
-c output control, "ps -Alc" the priority results are much closer to
top. From the ps manpage (-c different scheduler info for -l option)
