Re: GNU Parallel 20120411 alpha released

Hi there ...

swap_activity" is identical to v20120322, so it's still broken.
Is there anything I can do to see my awk replacement in the
next stable release?

Current code:

 vmstat 1 2 2>/dev/null | tail -n1 | awk '{print $7*$8}' ||
   vm_stat 1 | head -n 3 | tail -n1 | awk '{print $9*$10}'

Working code:

 { vmstat 1 2> /dev/null || vm_stat 1; } | awk '
   NR!=4{next}
   NF==16{print $7*$8}
   NF==11{print $10*$11}
   {exit}
 '
