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