449+
450+<CODE>time</CODE> uses a <EM>format string</EM> to determine which information to
451+display about the resources used by the command it runs. See section <A HREF="time.html#SEC3">1.2 The Format String</A>, for the interpretation of the format string contents.
452+</P>
453+<P>
454+
455+You can specify a format string with the command line options listed
456+below. If no format is specified on the command line, but the
457+<CODE>TIME</CODE> environment variable is set, its value is used as the format
458+string. Otherwise, the default format built into <CODE>time</CODE> is used:

525+The <EM>format string</EM> controls the contents of the <CODE>time</CODE> output.
526+It consists of <EM>resource specifiers</EM> and <EM>escapes</EM>, interspersed

530+
531+A backslash introduces an <EM>escape</EM>, which is translated
532+into a single printing character upon output. The valid escapes are
533+listed below. An invalid escape is output as a question mark followed
534+by a backslash.

555+<CODE>time</CODE> always prints a newline after printing the resource use

557+character (or `<SAMP>\n</SAMP>').
558+</P>
559+<P>
560+
561+A resource specifier consists of a percent sign followed by another
562+character. An invalid resource specifier is output as a question mark
563+followed by the invalid character. Use `<SAMP>%%</SAMP>' to output a literal
564+percent sign.
565+</P>
566+<P>
567+
568+The resource specifiers, which are a superset of those recognized by the
569+<CODE>tcsh</CODE> builtin <CODE>time</CODE> command, are listed below. Not all
570+resources are measured by all versions of Unix, so some of the values
571+might be reported as zero (see section <A HREF="time.html#SEC10">1.5 Accuracy</A>).

941+<!--docid::SEC10::-->
942+<P>
943+
944+The elapsed time is not collected atomically with the execution of the
945+program; as a result, in bizarre circumstances (if the <CODE>time</CODE>
946+command gets stopped or swapped out in between when the program being
947+timed exits and when <CODE>time</CODE> calculates how long it took to run), it
948+could be much larger than the actual execution time.
949+</P>
950+<P>
951+
952+When the running time of a command is very nearly zero, some values
953+(e.g., the percentage of CPU used) may be reported as either zero (which
954+is wrong) or a question mark.
955+</P>
956+<P>
957+
958+Most information shown by <CODE>time</CODE> is derived from the <CODE>wait3</CODE>
959+system call. The numbers are only as good as those returned by
960+<CODE>wait3</CODE>. Many systems do not measure all of the resources that
961+<CODE>time</CODE> can report on; those resources are reported as zero. The
962+systems that measure most or all of the resources are based on 4.2 or
963+4.3BSD. Later BSD releases use different memory management code that
964+measures fewer resources.
965+</P>
966+<P>
967+
968+On systems that do not have a <CODE>wait3</CODE> call that returns status
969+information, the <CODE>times</CODE> system call is used instead. It provides
970+much less information than <CODE>wait3</CODE>, so on those systems <CODE>time</CODE>
971+reports most of the resources as zero.
972+</P>
973+<P>
974+
975+The `<SAMP>%I</SAMP>' and `<SAMP>%O</SAMP>' values are allegedly only &quot;real&quot; input
976+and output and do not include those supplied by caching devices. The
977+meaning of &quot;real&quot; I/O reported by `<SAMP>%I</SAMP>' and `<SAMP>%O</SAMP>' may be
978+muddled for workstations, especially diskless ones.
