 Xxjobs reads job descriptions line by line and executes them in parallel. It
 Xlimits the number of parallel executing jobs and starts new jobs when jobs
 Xfinish. Therefore, it combines the arguments from every input line with the
 Xutility and arguments given on the command line. If no utility is given as an
 Xargument to xjobs, then the first argument on every job line will be used as
 Xutility. To execute utility xjobs searches the directories given in the PATH
 Xenvironment variable and uses the first file found in these directories.
 X
 Xxjobs is most useful on multi-processor/core machines when one needs to execute
 Xseveral time consuming command several that could possibly be run in parallel.
 XWith xjobs this can be achieved easily, and it is possible to limit the load of
 Xthe machine to a useful value. It works similar to xargs, but starts several
 Xprocesses simultaneously and gives only one line of arguments to each utility
 Xcall.
