Usage: $0 # / p / a /
where # is the number of arguments to take at a time,
/ is any string, used as a separator,
p is the first part, usually the program name, of each command l
+ine, and
a is the list of arguments for p.
For example: $0 1 / unzip / foo bar baz /
will execute:
unzip foo
unzip bar
unzip baz
Or: $0 2 / someprog -osz / these are some args /
will execute:
someprog -osz these are
someprog -osz some args
