@chapter Invoking

If invoked without any arguments, the programs
will exit with exit value 0. Otherwise, the
highest argument argument is select. They should
be integers or floating-point values. The process
will sleep until the selected time has been reached,
and will not stop even if interrupted. The time
should be specified as the number of seconds since
Epoch (1970-(01)Jan-01), in UTC bt not accounting
for leap seconds.

Some versions of @command{date} can be used to
specify the time point in a convenient manner.
