  • gnu_parallel

  • Wait what: `parallel` is a Perl script!? [1]

    I would have thought it's black magic with assembler optimisations for MIPS and special considerations for HP-UX...

    This is such a lovely and interesting writeup, it's wonderful that people take their time to share so generously!

    [1] : an 11k loc petal script, you can read along here: https://github.com/gitGNU/gnu_parallel/blob/master/src/paral...

  • supervisor

    Supervisor process control system for Unix (supervisord)

  • Here's more information about the configuration file format, in case anyone is curious: http://supervisord.org/configuration.html

    My problem is that it's not always immediately clear how software that would normally run as a systemd service could be launched in the foreground instead. It usually takes a bit of digging around.

  • rush

    A cross-platform command-line tool for executing jobs in parallel (by shenwei356)

  • If anyone needs a pretty basic alternative with Windows support, there's Rush:

    https://github.com/shenwei356/rush

    I use it pretty extensively with ffmpeg, imagemagick and the like.

    I'd been using the mmstick/parallel for a while, but it moved to RedoxOS repos and then stopped being updated, while still having some issues not ironed out.
