tcsh, and probably csh, has a builtin 'nice' with default +4. So
tcsh% nice ps -l
will show a process with nice +4. If you tell it not to use the builtin,
tcsh% \nice ps -l
then it uses /usr/bin/nice and you get +10. bash doesn't have a nice
builtin, so it always uses /usr/bin/nice and you get +10 by default.
