+module pyabc_split
+
+Executes python functions and their arguements as separate processes and returns their return values through pickling. This modules offers a single function:
+
+Function: split_all(funcs)
+
+The function returns a generator objects that allowes iteration over the results,
+
+Arguments:
+
+funcs: a list of tuples (f, args) where f is a python function and args is a collection of arguments for f.
+
+Caveats:
+
+1. Global variables in the parent process are not affected by the child processes.
+2. The functions can only return simple types, see the pickle module for details
+3. Signals are currently not handled correctly
+
+Usage:
+
+Assume you would like to run the function f_1(1), f_2(1,2), f_3(1,2,3) in different processes. 
+
+def f_1(i):
+    return i+1
+    
+def f_2(i,j):
+    return i*10+j+1
+    
+def f_3(i,j,k):
+    return i*100+j*10+k+1
+
+Construct a tuple of the function and arguments for each function
+
+t_1 = (f_1, [1])
+t_2 = (f_2, [1,2])
+t_3 = (f_3, [1,2,3])
+
+Create a list containing these tuples:
+
+funcs = [t_1, t_2, t_3]
+
+Use the function split_all() to run these functions in separate processes:
+
+for res in split_all(funcs):
+    print res
+    
+The output will be:
+
+2
+13
+124
+
+(The order may be different, except that in this case the processes are so fast that they terminate before the next one is created)
+
+Alternatively, you may quite in the middle, say after the first process returns:
+
+for res in split_all(funcs):
+    print res
+    break
+    
+This will kill all processes not yet finished.
+
+To run ABC operations, that required saving the child process state and restoring it at the parent, use abc_split_all().

+        pyabc.run_command('read_truth %s'%truth)
+        pyabc.run_command('strash')
+        
+    funcs = [
+        defer(abc_f)("1000"),
+        defer(abc_f)("0001")
+    ]
+
