Short: Execute a command after/on a given time Author: Sigbjørn Skjæret, AROS port Matthias Rustler Uploader: mrustler gmx de (Matthias Rustler) Type: util/cli Version: 2.1 Architecture: generic AROS source code for CISC's con-like tool. Original README: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Very powerful poor-man's cron-tab that is 100% Pure so it can be made resident. (This has actually been laying on my disk for quite a while in the need for better docs, I just made a quick cleanup so you get the general idea, and hopefully you will figure out the rest by yourself. ;) ) Examples: $ waitx TIME=12:34:12 echo "this is an example" Waits until 12:34:12 is reached and will execute echo $ waitx H=5 M=36 echo "this is an example" Will wait 5 hours and 36 minutes and execute echo $ waitx HOURS=2 MINS=12 SECS=59 Will wait 2 hours, 12 minutes and 59 seconds and then returns to the prompt $ waitx DY=1 L=5 echo "this is an example" Will wait 1 day and execute echo, then repeat this a total of 5 times $ waitx M=15 ALWAYS echo "this is an example" Will execute echo every 15 minutes $ waitx D=12/9 T=16 L=0 echo "this is an example" Will wait until September 12th 16:00 and execute echo, and repeat forever $ waitx echo "this is an example" Will execute echo immediatly - CISC Uploaded using: archives.aros-exec.org
