Err, what's analog.cron exactly? Not something I distribute.
Anyway, the format is
min hr 1 * * command
where min, hr and command should be filled in appropriately. You then have
to initialise it either by putting it in a special place, or by running
crontab filename
according to your system.
See
man crontab
man 5 crontab
man cron
for details.
