I'll repeat this "issue". I'd like to see the "cron" type entries take "*" like normal crontabs do.
First, if you look at the Cornerstone Scheduler you'll see that the ability to define repeated tasks are somehow limited. Business apps can easily request administration tasks to be run twice a day on work days. To define this with the Cornerstone Scheduler you'll need to add 10 'cron' entries to it. This is why I'd like to extend it using the unix cron direction to define ranges and list of timing aspects. But then you're faced with the problem of defining sleep time for efficient use (which you need to be able to cooperate in the Cornerstone Scheduler machinery).
We've used this with my GenericTaskManager and doing repeated entires is a pain.
