Woah there cowboy.. cron only wakes up and checks what to do
every minute. He wants every 20 seconds..


Ray + Richard did perl and shell  so how about C?

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
main()
{
        while (1){
                /*ignore errors*/
                (void)system("cp filename1 filename2");
                (void)sleep(20);
        }
}
mmm slop.
what a silly reason to use C.
have fun...
