After some thoughts I decided to switch from plain mk-files to
mk-configure build system. It provides very cool features and makes
development drammatically easier. It also makes Makefiles much
cleaner and easier. Installation instructions has been updated in
README file.
PAEXEC reads the tasks from stdin and distributes them to all
available hosts or CPU. If some tasks are easy and can be made
quickly while others require much more CPU time it makes sense to
reorder tasks calcultion in order to reduce total calculation time
and reduce computers/CPUs idle time. For this purpose -W<num> option
is added to paexec(1) using weights assigned to each tasks. At the
moment only two values are allowed for <num>: 0 -- do not use
weights at all, 1 -- run heavier tasks first as soon as possible.
New tool paexec_reorder(1) for reordering sliced output of
paexec(1). It is written in runawk. So, you'll need it at run time.
FIXED: 1 byte buffer overflow if -d option is applied.
Documentation update. Tons of new regression tests. Regression
tests framework has been significantly reworked. Clean-ups.
README: notes about my Debian/Lenny/x86 repository.
Minor fixes (warning messages) for different compilers.
