schedtool

schedtool interfaces with the Linux CPU scheduler. It allows the user to set and query the CPU-affinity and nice-levels of processes, as well as all scheduling policies, like batch or real-time (RR/FIFO) classes and their priorities. All special scheduling classes of the -ck kernel patchset are also supported.

Going to be retracted
... as Robert M. Love has got an "official" tool right there.

As the Batch-scheduling hasn't made it into 2.5, it is without batch-support. Please see freshmeat.net/projects... (freshmeat.net/projects....
