here they'll probably be executed simultaneously, since they both have zero dependencies and the machine can run multiple jobs at the same time. (can be disabled with `--max_jobs=1` or `-p=1`).

Here's another illustrative example:

    A -> B
    B -> C
    Z -> C

In this situation, frof will schedule `Z` to run in a parallel thread ASAP, so it will likely run alongside A... and if Z takes longer to run than A, Z will continue running when A stops and B starts. But C will wait for all other jobs to finish before it can schedule.

Nice, thanks a lot. Unfortunately I am quite swamped recently so I will definitely cannot help you with feature requests and testing but I have bookmarked frof and absolutely will be giving it a try.

Just one thing I would dislike... Python. How easy it is to run frof without having to fiddle with venvs and such?

[j6m8]

no worries, good to know this would be a useful feature! I'll add it to my backlog.

    pip install 'git+https://github.com/j6k4m8/frof/'

and then

    frof myfile.frof

should work!

Was thinking about rewriting it in Go recently... :)

I've found prototyping in python followed by a rewrite in Go quite pleasant, would recommend

I'll try the vanilla Python route but knowing our mutual hatred, it'll crap the bed in 0.5s. :D We'll see.

And then I might actually contribute. :)
