We have a program, which can suspend our terminal. We want to be sure, that program won’t be executed for more than n seconds. Here is a solution:
((sleep 10 && killall top)&); top
Explanation:
sleep 10 is executed for 10 seconds and then exit (you can use sleep n if you want sleep to be executed for n seconds
killall top terminates all processes named “top”
top - is example of program; top shows information about processes in your system
