-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-3976 2009-04-27 20:37:56 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : spawn Product : Fedora 9 Version : 0.1 Release : 1.fc9 URL : http://code.google.com/p/spawntool/ Summary : Simple tool to run several Linux command-lines in parallel Description : spawn is a simple parallel execution utility written to appeal to the Unix mindset. spawn reads shell command lines from stdin, one per line, and then executes them as maximum of N child processes in parallel, and waits for all of the children to exit. If a child process fails with a non-zero exit code, no new children are spawned. Then spawn waits for all existing children to exit and returns the failed exit code. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: spawn is a simple parallel execution utility written to appeal to the Unix mindset. spawn reads shell command lines from stdin, one per line, and then executes them as maximum of N child processes in parallel, and waits for all of the children to exit.
