Noticed in the help output of check_procs, check_disk and potentially more has some misleading wording when describing the timeout parameter.

 -t, --timeout=INTEGER
    Seconds before connection times out (default: 10)

Replacing the word "connection" with "plugin" makes more sense to me. You might also argue that this change is suitable for all plugins if they all use alarms to enforce timeouts.
