2013-11-05Use docbook-xsl to build man pagesPeter Eisentraut1-0/+2
Use the style sheets from docbook-xsl to build man pages from DocBook, instead of the obsolete docbook2x package. Adjust Debian build dependencies accordingly. Add some man page metadata required by the new tool chain to the sources.
2013-11-05Use http system identifiersPeter Eisentraut1-1/+1
This makes the DocBook files independent of particular file-system layout. On system with proper XML catalog setups, there should be no difference. (No actual HTTP calls will be made.)

2010-02-23fix load edge caseJoey Hess1-2/+2
If load == maxload, it would not start a job, but also not sleep. That could, in theory, make parallel spin for a bit. Also, clarify docs.

2009-07-25support -n optionPierre Habouzit1-0/+8
This makes parallel stuff more than one argument to the subcommands. It's very useful when subcommands are slow to start and are able to process multiple files at once, that tasks are small but plenty. For example: $ ./parallel -n 3 echo -- a b c d e f g h a b c d e f g h Signed-off-by: Pierre Habouzit <madcoder@debian.org>
