Does anything exist for scheduling periodic events such as with crontab in DSL?

Another thread about cron : < Cron topic >

Get dsl-dpkg.dsl and then :
# apt-get install cron
will get and install cron_3.0pl1-86_i386.deb

Then you have cron installed.

Or if you want to keep them after reboot, you may build a .dsl file : look for topic title "< deb2dsl > script testers needed" and follow the explanation.
