$ at 7pm ls / <Ctrl-D> job 1258205400.c at Sat Nov 14 19:00:00 2009 will execute the command "ls /" at 7pm.
Please remember, it is a little tricky. I have had issues with it. It relies on cron and also a daemon(atd) or something to run. Only then it will work. But it can be really useful. It remembers the working directory from which you execute the command. The output will be sent as mail to you. You can execute this as a regular user of course. Moreover you can give a file as $ at -f script.sh Monday at is brilliant when it comes to understanding time. It can read your mind. ;) -Girish -- Gayatri Hitech web: http://gayatri-hitech.com SpamCheetah Spam filter: http://spam-cheetah.com _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [email protected] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
