      Description: Jobpool is a shell script utility for running jobs in parallel
      Long Description: Jobpool is a shell script utility for running jobs in parallel. It manages a queue of jobs by ensuring that no more than J jobs run at one time, and does so portably and with low overhead. (Currently the only available documentation is the webpage for this utility, so this port downloads and installs it as well.)
