mdm-run - run a command in parallel with mdm-master

mdm-run  annotates  command  as  a candidate for parallel execution.  If an mdm-master process is present
       (i.e., the environment variable MDM_CMD_SOCK is defined), mdm-run submits command to the mdm-master,  and
       it  exits  when  the master issues the command to an mdm-slave process (which may be connected to another
       terminal) for execution.  mdm-sync runs command in place, but it coordinates with  mdm-master  to  ensure
       that executing command does not interfere with commands that are currently executing in parallel.

       If  there  is no mdm-master process present (i.e., the environment variable MDM_CMD_SOCK is not defined),
       both mdm-run and mdm-sync simply run command as if you entered command all by itself.

       These programs are a part of the Middleman System (mdm).

       The mdm system uses the following environment variable for internal communication, and  thus  you  should
       not try to set them yourself.

       MDM_CMD_SOCK
              mdm-run uses this environment variable to decide whether a mdm-master process is present.

       See mdm.screen(1) for an example use of mdm-run.

       If there is no mdm-master process present, the exit status of mdm-run is the exit status of command.   If
       an  mdm-master  process is present, the exit status is 0 if and only if command is successfully issued to
       an mdm-slave process for execution.

       The exit status of mdm-sync is always the exit status of command.

       Neither mdm-run nor mdm-sync accepts any options.
