GNU parallel is a shell tool for executing jobs +concurrently locally or using remote computers. A job is typically a +single command or a small script that has to be run for each of the +lines in the input. The typical input is a list of files, a list of +hosts, a list of users, a list of URLs, or a list of tables.
+ +GNU sem is an alias for GNU parallel +--semaphore.
+It works as a tool for executing shell commands in parallel. GNU +sem acts as a counting semaphore. When GNU +sem is called with command it will start the command +in the background. When num number of commands are running in +the background, GNU sem will wait for one of these to +complete before starting another command.
+ +GNU sql aims to give a simple, unified interface +for accessing databases through all the different databases' command +line clients. The database is addressed using a DBURL. If commands +are left out you will get that database's interactive shell.
+GNU sql is often used in combination with GNU +parallel.
+ +GNU niceload will run a program when the load average +is below a certain limit. When the limit is reached the program will be +suspended for some time. Then resumed again for some time. Then the load +average is checked again and we start over.
