+ <h3>Note on maxparallel attribute</h3>
+ <p>
+ Some shells have a limit of the number of characters that
+ a command line may contain.
+ This maximum limit varies from shell to shell and from operating
+ system to operating system.
+ If one has a large number of files to change mode on, consider
+ using the <em>maxparallel</em> attribute. For example
+ when using AIX and the limit is reached, the system responds
+ with a warning: "Warning:
+ UNIXProcess.forkAndExec native error: The parameter or environment lists
+ are too long". A value of about 300 seems to result in a
+ command line that is acceptable.
+ </p>
