I am trying to use "at" to automatically record a radio program using "rec"
 from the command line.    This works fine except I want to turn it off 
after about 15 minutes and to do this I need to output a control-c to
terminate rec.  I have tried to do this with no success.  I can't find a 
timer option in at and running a second at or cron 15 minutes later doesn't
 work because rec is waiting for a control-c and hasn't returned control
to the command line.  If I need to write a perl script could you give some
basic advice what approach to take.  Thanks
