1 GNU parallel is a shell tool for executing jobs in parallel
2 using one or more computers.
3 A job can be a single command or a small script that has to
4 be run for each of the lines in the input.
5 The typical input is a list of files, a list of hosts, a
6 list of users, a list of URLs, or a list of tables.
7 A job can also be a command that reads from a pipe. GNU
8 parallel can then split the input and pipe it into commands
9 in parallel.
