[julia-users] how to add processes at other hosts from inside julia instead of via --machinefile file on the command line

[moritz braun]

Dear All

I am working on using julia with LSF and bsub.
As you might be aware the bsub command puts the
hosts to be used for the job in an enivorment variable
LSB_HOSTS. 
It is easy to create a machinefile from that to be used when starting julia 
with --machinefile.
However It would be quite elegant, if one could add the remote processes 
inside of julia
using this information, instead of needing a wrapper around the actual 
julia script.

any hints are welcome!

regards

Moritz
