* 100% options complete with xargs. All options for xargs can now be
used in GNU Parallel - even the more exotic.
* --basefile for transferring basedata. When running jobs on remote
computers --basefile will transfer files before the first jobs is
run. It can be used to transfer data that remains the same for each
job such as scripts or lookup tables.
* --progress shows progress. To see how many jobs is running on each
server use --progress. It can be turned on even after GNU Parallel
is started.
* --eta shows estimated time left in seconds.
* --halt-on-error stops if an error occurs. GNU Parallel will default
to run all jobs - even if some of them fail. With --halt-on-error
GNU Parallel can ignore errors, wait for the currently running jobs
to finish, or stop immediately when an error occurs.
