My problem involves some very time-consuming fitness testing, so I'd
like to farm it out over a couple dozen machines.  It looks like the
ec.eval package will do this, but I don't understand how to set it
up.  Specifically, the documentation for ec.eval.Slave says:

"The slave is run with one of the following argument formats:"

...but it stops there.

Can someone help me get started?

Thanks,
