Haiku of the month:
code fork headache blues?
option P is your new friend
`man parallel` now!
-- Malcolm Cook
<<>>
New in this release:
* GNU Parallel now uses the same shell it was started from as the command shell for local jobs. So if GNU Parallel is started from tcsh it will use tcsh as its shell even if the login $SHELL is different. For remote jobs the login $SHELL will be used.
* If the file give as --sshloginfile is changed it will be re-read when a job finishes though at most once per second. This makes it possible to add and remove hosts while running.
* The whole current environment in bash can be copied by using a shell wrapper function (Search manual for env_parallel).
* Brutha uses GNU Parallel https://pypi.python.org/pypi/brutha/1.0.2
* --plus adds the replacement strings {+/} {+.} {+..} {+...} {..} {...} {/..} {/...}. The idea being that '+foo' matches the opposite of 'foo' and {} = {+/}/{/} = {.}.{+.} = {+/}/{/.}.{+.} = {..}.{+..} = {+/}/{/..}.{+..} = {...}.{+...} = {+/}/{/...}.{+...}
* OCRmyPDF uses GNU Parallel https://github.com/fritz-hh/OCRmyPDF/
* GNU Parallel now deals correctly with the combination rsync-3.1.X-client and rsync-2.5.7-server
* GNU Parallel was cited in: A Web Service for Scholarly Big Data Information Extraction http://patshih.ist.psu.edu/publications/Williams-CiteSeerExtractor-ICWS14.pdf
* Comparison of the speed of different GNU Parallel versions: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/parallel/2014-08/msg00030.html

will generate the files x1y01z1 .. x5y10z5. If you want to aggregate
the output grouping on x and z you can do this:
parallel eval 'cat {=s/y01/y*/=} > {=s/y01//=}' ::: *y01*
For all values of x and z it runs commands like:
cat x1y*z1 > x1z1
