Nice, but I can't think of a use case for it that isn't adequately
covered by GNU xargs... (Its -P0 will I believe emulate your --parallel)

Make with the -j option.

-j = as many as possible
-j nnn up to nnn at a time.

In addition job interdedpence can be handled.

Ie. don't start these 3 jobs until these other 2 run to completion
successfully.

This is similar to what my script does, except that it does not
require a makefile.

My immediate use of this would be to speed up image conversion with
imagemagick. I have a script that would download pictures from my
camera, and then "convert" them to make it 50%x50% of original size.

I want to speed up "convert" by parallelizing it.
