Yeah that is weird. I cannot reproduce the error. Report bugs to <[email protected]> or https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=additem&group=parallel Your bug report should always include: * The output of parallel --version. If you are not running the latest released version you should specify why you believe the problem is not fixed in that version. * A complete example that others can run that shows the problem. A combination of seq, cat, echo, and sleep can reproduce most errors. If you example requires large files, see if you can use make them by something like seq 1000000>file. If you suspect the error is dependent on your distribution, please see if you can reproduce the error on one of these distibutions: http://sourceforge.net/projects/virtualboximage/files/ /Ole
