Bart Schaefer 62878a462d Massive improvement of --max-procs handling; reorganize option parsing to
do only what's necessary for each early-bailout test; bump version number.

# function zargs {
#
# This function works like GNU xargs, except that instead of reading lines
# of arguments from the standard input, it takes them from the command
# line. This is possible/useful because, especially with recursive glob
# operators, zsh often can construct a command line for a shell function
# that is longer than can be accepted by an external command.
#
# Like xargs, zargs exits with the following status:
# 0 if it succeeds
# 123 if any invocation of the command exited with status 1-125
# 124 if the command exited with status 255
# 125 if the command is killed by a signal
# 126 if the command cannot be run
# 127 if the command is not found
# 1 if some other error occurred.
#
# The full set of GNU xargs options is supported (see help text below);
# although --eof and --max-lines therefore have odd names, they have
# analogous meanings to their xargs counterparts. Also zargs --help is
# a lot more helpful than xargs --help, at least as of xargs 4.1.
#
# Note that "--" is used both to end the options and to begin the command,
# so to specify some options along with an empty set of input-args, one
# must repeat the "--" as TWO consecutive arguments, e.g.:
# zargs --verbose -- -- print There are no input-args
# If there is at least one input-arg, the first "--" may be omitted:
# zargs -p -i one -- print There is just {} input-arg
# Obviously, if there is no command, the second "--" may be omitted:
# zargs -n2 These words will be echoed in five lines of two
#
# BUGS:
#
# "Killed by a signal" is determined by the usual shell rule that $? is
# the signal number plus 128, so zargs can be fooled by a command that
# explicitly exits with 129+. Also, zsh prior to 4.1.x returns 1 rather
# than 127 for "command not found" so this function incorrectly returns
# 123 in that case if used with zsh 4.0.x.
#
# With the --max-procs option, zargs may not correctly capture the exit
# status of the backgrounded jobs, because of limitations of the "wait"
# builtin. If the zsh/parameter module is not available, the status is
# NEVER correctly returned, otherwise the status of the longest-running
# job in each batch is captured.
#
# Also because of "wait" limitations, --max-procs spawns max-procs jobs,
# then waits for all of those, then spawns another batch, etc.

Usage: zargs [options --] [input-args] [-- command [initial-args]]
If command and initial-args are omitted, "print -r --" is used.
Options:
--eof[=eof-str], -e[eof-str]
Change the end-of-input-args string from "--" to eof-str. If
given as --eof=, an empty argument is the end; as --eof or -e,
with no (or an empty) eof-str, all arguments are input-args.
--exit, -x
Exit if the size (see --max-chars) is exceeded.
--help
Print this summary and exit.
--interactive, -p
Prompt before executing each command line.
--max-args=max-args, -n max-args
Use at most max-args arguments per command line.
--max-chars=max-chars, -s max-chars
Use at most max-chars characters per command line.
--max-lines[=max-lines], -l[max-lines]
Use at most max-lines of the input-args per command line.
This option is misnamed for xargs compatibility.
--max-procs=max-procs, -P max-procs
Run up to max-procs command lines in the background at once.
--no-run-if-empty, -r
Do nothing if there are no input arguments before the eof-str.
--null, -0
Split each input-arg at null bytes, for xargs compatibility.
--replace[=replace-str], -i[replace-str]
Substitute replace-str in the initial-args by each initial-arg.
Implies --exit --max-lines=1.
--verbose, -t
Print each command line to stderr before executing it.
--version
Print the version number of zargs and exit.
