RE: {.} {/} {/.} ...

[Cook, Malcolm]

Thanks, Jay, sure, that works fine and is what I'm doing now.

Similarly, $(basename {}) work instead of {.}

It is just a convenience factor that is easily coded around.

I think my request to have parallel exec the code in the directory containing 
the file is perhaps more relevant.... what do you think?
