GNU Parallel Bug Reports Sorry, email corrected: Can't make run "env_parallel" nor "--env" option

[Xavier Martínez Serrano]

Hi there!

Thank you for this fantastic tool which have helped me lots of times, now I'm trying to make parallel run within a shellscript that contains many functions. For that I would export my shellscript envrionment.

I run parallel version: 20140722, therefore I downloaded "env_parallel.zsh" from:
http://fossies.org/linux/misc/parallel-20160822.tar.gz/parallel-20160822/src/env_parallel.zsh

And run:
sudo mv env_parallel.zsh /usr/local/bin
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/env_parallel.zsh

But can't make the examples run:

address@hidden set|wc -c ; set|wc -c|hr
31391
30.65 KiB

address@hidden typeset -f|wc -c ; typeset -f|wc -c|hr
113887
111.22 KiB

Trying example of "env_parallel.pdf" (pg:6):

address@hidden myfunc() { echo functions $*; }       
address@hidden myfunc work
functions work
address@hidden env_parallel myfunc ::: work          
env_parallel:83: argument list too long: /usr/bin/parallel
address@hidden
                                 
address@hidden env_parallel --env myfunc myfunc ::: work    
zsh:1: command not found: myfunc

Thank you very much in advance,

Xavi
