Hi, I wonder whether it would be possible/desirable to have an option to update gnu parallel via an option to the program, such that it would be possible to do the following to retrieve the latest version:
parallel --update Since it's contained in a single perl script and released to a single location (with the latest version given by parallel-latest.tar.bz2), this might be possible. Personally, I download new versions from the ftp archive when they are released, so having an update option to parallel itself would be very convenient. It might be as simple as having `parallel --update` run the following: (wget -O - pi.dk/3 || curl pi.dk/3/) | bash Thanks, Shyam
