# Attempt backing up ones (Debian) at jobs as a regular user.
# Yes it is easy as root, but not as a regular user. So let's try anyway still.
#
# Here is a rudimentary backup script I made that can be used non-root
# It runs on the old machine, making a shell script that can be run on the
# new machine to load the at jobs in.
#
# Let's assume your webhost says they are shutting down the old machine and you
had better
# rescue your atjobs yourself.
