+%description
+GNU Parallel is a shell tool for executing jobs in parallel using one
+or more 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, or
+a list of tables.
+
+If you use xargs today you will find GNU Parallel very easy to use. 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 jobs in
+parallel. If you use ppss or pexec you will find GNU Parallel will
+often make the command easier to read.
+
+GNU Parallel also 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.
