+## Description
+
+Run a command full-screen periodically until interrupted, then return the
+aggregated error code.
+
+## Options
+
+* '-n': Interval between executions, in seconds. By default, the program is run every 2 seconds.
+* '-t': Don't print the title bar.
+* '-b': Beep each time the command exits with a non-zero status
+
+## Exit Values
+
+* 0 - Success
+* 1 - At least one invocation of the command failed or exited with a non-zero status
