A tool like shmux that can't talk to its targets in parallel so that one unreachable target need not slow everything down is not worthy of integrating. If shmux can do that then it doesn't need a -p option. Thus I'm for "removing the silly "-p" option." (shmux does need a connect timeout option, but that's another story. I've not looked to see if has one.) Nico --
