It is available for download at: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/parallel/ New in this release: * --header : uses the first input line as column names and you can then use {colname} as a replacement string in the command. This also works with multiple :::'s. * --header matches a header as a regular expression and repeats the header for each block with --pipe. * --resume resumes from the last unfinished job. Useful if you stop GNU Parallel and restart it later with the same arguments. * niceload now propagates exit status correctly. * Show your support for GNU Parallel. For a limited time you can get a GNU Parallel T-shirt+mug+pen+100 postcards at 20 EUR. See https://www.gnu.org/software/parallel/merchandise.html * Options -g -B -T -U -W -Y are retired as warned 6 months ago. * GNU Parallel referenced in article on Holographic Grid Cloud.

A job is can be 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. A job can also be a command that reads from a pipe. GNU Parallel can then split the input and pipe it into commands in parallel. If you use xargs and tee 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. GNU Parallel can even replace nested loops. 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.

So far the focus has been on giving a common way to specify login information (protocol, username, password, hostname, and port number), size (database and table size), and running queries. The database is addressed using a DBURL. If commands are left out you will get that database's interactive shell. When using GNU SQL for a publication please cite: O. Tange (2011): GNU SQL - A Command Line Tool for Accessing Different Databases Using DBURLs, ;login: The USENIX Magazine, April 2011:29-32. = About GNU Niceload = GNU niceload slows down a program when the computer load average (or other system activity) is above a certain limit. When the limit is reached the program will be suspended for some time. If the limit is a soft limit the program will be allowed to run for short amounts of time before being suspended again. If the limit is a hard limit the program will only be allowed to run when the system is below the limit. >>>>>
