 Given a queue list file, the number of active lapRuns can be increased by finding the command line for the next unprocessed projection cell/filter, and issuing that command.  However, only one command should be issued at any time.  Due to the way the exposure sharing works, having two lapRuns with the state of 'new' in the same filter can cause multiple chipRuns to be queued for the same exposure.  To prevent this from happening, wait until there are no more lapRuns with state 'new' before adding a second lapRun.
 
+For safety, it's generally best to use the {{{trickle_add.pl}}} script in the {{{~ipp/lap}}} directory to launch multiple new runs.  This script accepts a set of {{{laptool -definerun}}} commands in a file (or from stdin, such as with {{{head -10 queue | trickle_add.pl}}}), and launches them one at a time, ensuring that the previous command is in state {{{run}}} before issuing the next command.  This helps the exposure linking so that all exposures are shared fully.
