GNU Parallel now has a tutorial. Spend an hour walking through it; your command line will love you for it.
http://www.gnu.org/software/parallel/parallel_tutorial.html
From version 20130822 you can also find the tutorial by running:
man parallel_tutorial
Use --bibtex
to generate the BibTeX entry:
parallel --bibtex
There's a very nice post on parallel here in biostars: GNU Parallel - parallelize serial command line programs without changing them
oh, and now I see that not only are you the author of the original post, it appears that you're the author/maintainer of GNU parallel. cheers.
Thank you for the tutorial ole, GNU parallel is a great tool that I wish more people knew about! I try to show-off with it so that my co-workers want to use it :) Is there a pdf version of the tutorial? I guess it could help spreading the word.
Version 20130922 has PDF files of all the man pages - including the tutorial.
Great! Thank you Ole
