USELESS advice From: jacobus@rock-opera.cc.purdue.edu (Bryan J. Maloney) Date: Fri, 17 Sep 1993 04:51:01 +0000 This is in reference to my complaint that not everyone can submit 24 turns, each at one per hour, for Arena and the "advice" I got back: Okay, I looked at the 'man' listings for "at", "cron", "crontab", "atq", etc., and this told me NOTHING of use. I have never written a shell script and do not know the first thing about doing so. Some of us with computer accounts are not computer science majors or programmers, and before you get snide with me, is everyone here who owns a knife and a skillet a trained chef? I'm sure that the "at", "atq", etc. stuff would be helpful, but IFF (that's if and only if) I had expereince at writing shell scripts, of which I have none, whatsoever. So, does anyone have something useful to say to my complaint? -- Bryan Maloney Referenced By Up
