Hi,

I'm trying to build a pgm that will launch and stop a bunch of my programs
on some schedule.  Sorta like cron, but all I'd have to do is start this one
program and it would do all the work of starting and stopping the rest of
the programs.  Maybe you could call it a job parent.

I need to stop then immediately start one of the programs every hour.  So in
effect, this parent job is kind of like a janitor stopping and starting this
other program once and hour.

I figure I will have other child programs that need to be started and
stopped on their own schedule.

The only way I can think of doing it with POE, is by having a inline state
for each start and stop of each child program, so that I can schedule them
independently.  Seems very inflexible.  I was hoping someone could point me
in a better direction

Thanks
Jay
