input from empty file is handled as no input was provided

Input from an empty file, I think, should be handled as there is nothing to do, but instead it's trying to read inputs from stdin.

$ parallel 'echo {}' :::: empty_file
parallel: reading inputs from standard input
^C

Stay tuned, as I am currently developing a superior alternative to this project that can also handle distributed command executions asynchronously via the Tokio project, and whereby each input will create an embedded instance of the Ion shell.
