illuminating, and the "Read Me" that comes with it is as well, but in
neither case is a concise list of routines provided.
open the terminal, man cron, look at the stuff about crontabs.
then shrug; 'cos there aren't any in the directory,and stuff still

same with rc and rc.local and /var/run/startup items.
I'm not sure where to look for a detailed list if the standard unix
places aren't being used. Maybe there's a standard place I am not
remembering.

Typical traditional philosophical question:
"If a tree falls in the woods but no one is there to hear it, does it
make a sound?"
Bill Clinton's philosophical question:
"It depends on what the meaning of 'is', is."
Bush administration's philosophical ponderings:
"It depends on what the meaning of "torture" is".
