If no _limits_ are given, *prlimit* will display the current values. If one of the values is not given, then the existing one will be used. To specify the unlimited or infinity limit (*RLIM_INFINITY*), the -1 or 'unlimited' string can be passed. + +Because of the nature of limits, the soft limit must be lower or equal to the high limit (also called the ceiling). To see all available resource limits, refer to the *RESOURCE OPTIONS* section. + +//TRANSLATORS: Keep {colon} untranslated. +* _soft_{colon}_hard_ Specify both limits. +* _soft_{colon} Specify only the soft limit. +* {colon}__hard__ Specify only the hard limit. +* _value_ Specify both limits to the same value. + +== GENERAL OPTIONS + +*--noheadings*:: +Do not print a header line. + +*-o, --output* _list_:: +Define the output columns to use.
