Summary

A light-weight package helps you track and visualize the progress of parallel version of vectorized R functions (mc*apply). Parallelization (mc.core > 1) works only on *nix (Linux, Unix such as macOS) system due to the lack of fork() functionality, which is essential for mc*apply, on Windows.
