AT-FILE FORMAT [DUAL MODE]
NAME AT FILE FORMAT - This document describes the at-
commands file format
SYNTAX
# comment line
; comment line
CONTINUE
QUIT
BREAK
time command
+time command
USAGE
At can be given its arguments in a file. You can comment
out lines by preceding them with either # or ;-
characters. This is an easy way to temporarily disable
some commands.
The CONTINUE-command is most useful at the end of the
file. When this command is read, the file is started
again from the beginning. You can use it situations where
the machine is not shut down for the night and you want
to run some commands every day.
When the QUIT or BREAK keywords are recognized, the file
is immediately closed and the at-command stopped.
The file formats are identical to the at-command. Two
time formats are supported. The first list the absolute
time in hh:mm:ss -format, where hh=hour, mm=minute,
ss=second. The time is parsed from left to right. That is
a two part time represents hh:mm and a one part time
represents hours only.
The second format is given relative to the current time.
This format is identical to the first format, except that
it starts with a plus (+).
EXAMPLES
11:00:00 popup "\n\n Lunch!"
13:00:00 popup "Call George"
17:00:00 popup "\n\n The day is done."
