manage_ssh_agent: Two shell scripts
(start-ssh-agent and stop-ssh-agent) to manage ssh-agent so command(s) can be securely
executed on remote Linux/UNIX hosts without prompting for passwords or passphrases.
multx: A shell script to securely execute commands on multiple remote Linux/UNIX hosts.
splitcompress: A shell script that splits (presumably rather large) file(s)
into compressed chunks. It does this using N asynchronous (simultaneous) "threads" (sub-processes) - though N can be 1.
It also (typically, but optionally) computes checksums of the original file, the uncompressed and compressed chunks.
