Synopsis:  $script_name [-t timeout] [-i interval] [-d delay] command

Executes the command with a time-out.  Upon time-out expiration SIGTERM (15) is
sent to the process.  If SIGTERM signal is blocked, then the subsequent SIGKILL
(9) terminates it.

$blue-t timeout$off
    Number of seconds to wait for command completion.
    Default value: $param_timeout seconds.  In some practical situations
    this value ${bold_red}must$off be increased (for instance -t 180) to allow
    the command to complete.

$blue-i interval$off
    Interval between checks if the process is still alive.
    Positive integer, default value: $param_interval seconds.
    Default value is OK for most situations.

$blue-d delay$off
    Delay between posting the SIGTERM signal and destroying the process by
    SIGKILL.  Default value: $param_delay seconds.
    Default value is OK for most situations.

As of today, Bash does not support floating point arithmetic (sleep does),
therefore all time values must be integers.
