This option allows you to override the default shell

the exit code is checked: If the exit code of the command

The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a

space-separated number of values, each of which is a
334
number and a one-character suffix. The suffix must be one
335
of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
336
<quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
337
minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively. The values are
338
added together to give the total time value, so all of
339
<quote><literal>330s</literal></quote>,
340
<quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
341
<quote><literal>5m 30s</literal></quote> will give a value

of five minutes and thirty seconds.
347
The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC
348
3339 duration; for example
349
<quote><literal>P1Y2M3DT4H5M6S</literal></quote> meaning
350
one year, two months, three days, four hours, five
