Create a debian (apt-get install) package wrapper for concurrently #414

Open cdrini opened 1 year ago

cdrini commented 1 year ago

Concurrently is a great tool, and significantly simpler and easier to understand than its closest competitor in the unix world, GNU parallel. It can also do a few powerful things that gnu parallel simply cannot. I would love to be able to apt-get install concurrently without having to install node first. Would it be possible to bundle/build this so people can run apt-get install concurrently, and just install it as a general utility outside of the node/npm ecosystem?

Use case: Make concurrently installable on linux systems without requiring node.

Hey hey, I'm open to the idea of having a debian package (or any other package managers as well), however it'd be nice to have it automated via GH Actions, if possible. Since Linux is not my main OS, I'd likely forget to do it :(

Help is appreciated where possible
