+	<description>
+GNU parallel is a shell tool for executing jobs in parallel 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.
+
+If you use xargs today you will find GNU parallel very easy to use as GNU
+parallel is written to have the same options as xargs. If you write loops in
+shell, you will find GNU parallel may be able to replace most of the loops and
+make them run faster by running several jobs in parallel. If you use ppss or
+pexec you will find GNU parallel will often make the command easier to read.
+
+GNU parallel makes sure output from the commands is the same output as you would
+get had you run the commands sequentially. This makes it possible to use output
+from GNU parallel as input for other programs.
+
+For each line of input GNU parallel will execute command with the line as
+arguments. If no command is given, the line of input is executed. Several lines
+will be run in parallel. GNU parallel can often be used as a substitute for
+xargs or cat | sh.</description>
