Re: tool to run scripts in parallel ?

Hello Manuel,

Maybe this helps..You have to modify those scripts and add smth like this :

chomp( my @lines = qx/yourcommands/ );

where "lines" is your output and "yourcommands" are your functions or
whatever you have there.
Also you can redirect your output to a file.
