-f, --foreground
when not running timeout directly from a shell prompt, allow
COMMAND to read from the TTY and get TTY signals; in this mode,
children of COMMAND will not be timed out
-k, --kill-after=>>>>>>>
also send a KILL signal if COMMAND is still running this long
after the initial signal was sent
-p, --preserve-status
exit with the same status as COMMAND, even when the command
times out

Upon timeout, send the TERM signal to COMMAND, if no other SIGNAL
specified. The TERM signal kills any process that does not block or
catch that signal. It may be necessary to use the KILL signal, since
this signal can't be caught.
