Not if you want to combine it with searching for a process by name; the
"-v" would invert both the name and the running time.  Perhaps "-r -N"
could mean "less then N", as in find(1); or "-r '<N'", as in "cvs log
-d"

I don't see an immediate use for range, but I mentioned it for
completeness.  Even if ranges are not implemented now, I don't want us
to use a syntax that makes it difficult to add ranges in the future.
