One method is to have an TimerAgentApp.rev that scans, then notifies
another MainApp.rev that it is time to check
I use an FTPagent.rev app to scan the output of a Photoshop action
script to move, rename, and upload files automatically.

A cool design of this a sample stack written by Scott Rossi called
TimeSpinner
The name refers to the dramatic visual effect he demonstatrates.

I used this as an app for my time and date display for a *couple
years*.
It ran *flawlessly*, even after waking from sleep mode.
The second app can use a constant 'send in' since it only has one loop
to run.
----------------------------------
Another approach that is less user friendly...
.. program a CRON job, which would be active whenever the *nix system
is running in the correct mode.
Another trigger that would be persistent is to use text files, then
look for them
The agent looking could be the cron task script that detects a file
and the Rev app running, then sends the trigger.
Hope this helps with adding confusion.
