----------------------------------------------------------

I'm creating a unit test for ExternalParser with the intent to display the concurrency issue.  I started by using {{cat}}

Firstly, when not putting the output token, the parser puts the full output from standard out into the ContentHandler, but it doesn't parse the metadata from standard out.
When putting the output token, cat outputs an error to standard error, because the output token itself is never replaced with anything.  https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1620 fixes that, but cat does not have an option for an output file other than the system redirects.  So by specifying both input and output files, cat just treats it like two input files.
