Hello,

the fencepost list has confirmed that pexec is on the list of the official GNU packages, so your project can finally be approved on Savannah.

Good luck with maintaining it.

Registration Details


  • Name: pexec
  • System Name:  pexec
  • Type: Official GNU software
  • License: GNU General Public License v3 or later





Description:

The main purpose of the program `pexec` is to execute the given command or shell script (e.g. parsed by `/bin/sh`) in parallel on the local host or on remote hosts, while some of the execution parameters, namely the redirected standard input, output or error and environmental variables can be varied. This program is therefore capable to replace the classic shell loop iterators (e.g. `for ~ in ~ done`, in `bash`) by executing the body of the loop in parallel. Thus, the program `pexec` implements shell level data parallelism in a barely simple form. The capabilities of the program is extended with additional features, such as allowing to define mutual exclusions, do atomic command executions and implement higher level resource and job control.



Other Software Required:

glibc     LGPL     http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/



Other Comments:

The program `pexec` has been completed the GNU evaluation process and has been approved as a GNU package (as of Nov 10, 2008).
