        ================
        
        Monitcall is a small script to run executeables and
        watch for deadlocks in the process.
        
        Usage: ::
        
        monitcall [-h] [-a ARGS] [-t CYCLES] [-l LIMIT] [-s SIGNAL]
        [-d DEBUGLOG] [-v] cmd
        
        The script will call the given command (CMD) together with the
        given arguments (ARGS). If the CPU usage of the command is higher
        than the given limit (LIMIT) for more than CYCLES cycles
        the command is killed with the signal SIGNAL.
        
        Example:
        ========
        
        To extract the contents of a MS-Word document `mydocument.doc` to
        an utf-8 text printed on stdout call: ::
        
        monitcall wvWare -a '-c utf-8 --nographics mydocument.doc'
        
        Known issues:
        =============
        
        - The argument string must not start with `-a`. Like this: ::
        
        ... -a '-a 4 -c utf-8 ...'
        
        This seems to be a bug in the argparse module
