Comment:
My scripts that use it are before limeout(1) was a thing.
timelimit(1) seems to be available in most distributions, so it seemed cross-platform enough to be useful.
This timelimit(1) and timeout(1) provide largely matching functionality, but the invocation is incompatible, so converting between them needs adjusting any scripts.
To be fair, nowadays timeout(1) is part of all BSDs and OS X, perhaps this package is not that critical to provide.
