Hightlights
- --tmuxpane opens jobs in panes in tmux. Useful if you want to monitor progress of less than 100 simultaneous jobs.
- --linebuffer now treats \r as line ending, too.
- Perl changes forces use of floats to be given with leading zero, so 0.1 and not .1
- --xapply renamed to --link.
- Support for pdksh will fade until someone packages it for Ubuntu 16.
GNU Parallel is a shell tool for executing jobs in parallel using one or more computers. A job can be a single command or a small script that has to be run for each of the lines in the input.
