DSL Tips and Tricks :: Cron job

To schedule a job at certain intervals I was able to install kcron, which is a gui.

apt-get kcron.

Takes up over 30mb with all depdencies though.

It's probably very convenient to use kcron if you can spare the 30mb.

I've started playing around with newOldUser's fauxCron script which is considerably smaller than 30mb (actually weighs in, with the required input text file, under 5kb) and can be found on his google page. LINK
