This is the README file for prsh.pl, a parallel asynchronous interface
to rsh(1).  It runs a command on a set of remote hostnames listed on
the command line.  All remote commands execute concurrently, and their
standard output and standard error are merged and delivered to prsh's
standard output and standard error, respectively.  Options control
timeouts, status reports, output flushing, etc.

Prsh is written entirely in perl.  It requires perl, rsh and bash.

For more information on how to use the script, see the
pod documentation via the command
  perldoc prsh.PL
or, after installation, view the man pages with
  man prsh

For instructions on how to install the script, see the
file INSTALL.

Problems, questions, etc. may be sent to John Salmon <johns@cacr.caltech.edu>
