Killtime V2.0 1989, 1990, 1991
Shareware product by Todd D. Koury, (TDK)
Killtime is a multi-functional scheduler program. Batch jobs or
programs can be scheduled to run at a particular time. Switch
settings are [T] for time, [M] for minute, or [S] for second.
USAGE: killtime [switch]
SWITCHES: [ Thh:mm ] ( where hh:mm is valid military time )
[ Mnn ] ( where nn is number of minutes to wait )
( valid entries are from 1 to 59 minutes)
[ Snn ] ( where nn is number of seconds to wait )
( valid entries are from 1 to 58 seconds)
Syntax information is available also by execution killtime without
any parameters.
Normal program termination will exit with a DOS errorlevel 0,
termination by way of the ESC key will cause a DOS errorlevel 1.
Example for batch file use:
@echo off
killtime t15:30
if errorlevel 1 goto EXIT
xcopy g:
:EXIT
In the above example killtime will read the system time, wait till
15:30, then exit with an errorlevel 0. The ESC key can be used at
any time to terminate the program, and returns with an errorlevel 1.
Screen displays are used for the T and M parameters, this is to
let others know the system is in use. Screen display is
suppressed for the S parameter, this allows, short delays in batch
files without screen disruption.
NOTES ON THE T PARAMETER
If the input time is greater or less then the current time, execution will
begin at the next occurrence of that time. Inputting a time of 1 minute less
than current time will cause execution to begin 23 hours and 59 minutes later.
This program will not accept input time equal to that of current time.
