+Description: build and execute command lines from standard input in 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, 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.
