It is available for download at: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/parallel/ New in this release: * Using -j myfile the number of jobs can be changed while GNU Parallel is running simply by changing the content of myfile. * Slow spawning error is now only a warning. * If stdin is a tty and input is read from stdin you now get a warning. * GNU sql: \n and \x0a in arguments is replaced with newline. * Patch for Debian package and spelling mistakes. Thanks to Rogério Brito * Mac OS X Homebrew package. Thanks to Jonathan Palardy * FreeBSD port. Thanks to Chris Howey * Pardus package. Thanks to Fethican Coşkuner * First review in Chinese.

Old in this release: * See GNU Parallel live at FSCONS 2010-11-07: http://www.fscons.org/fs/gnu-parallel = About GNU Parallel = GNU Parallel is a shell tool for executing jobs in parallel using one or more machines. 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.
