Cronotask is like the Unix cron utility, but natively written on Mac and with a true Mac interface.
This program allows to specify an unlimited number of programs to launch when your Mac server is unattended, with a very easy and fast to use interface.
All the tasks to launch are listed in a table, with a double click on a row you can define in details how many times and when to launch the referred task (program, document, applet) selecting it from the HD, and using for the schedule a daily, weekly, monthly and even yearly plan.
Using Cronotask you can assign the tasks your Mac can perform for a whole year.
Interface of Cronotask is simply amazing.
It was realized taking full advantage of the new elements of apparence Manager available under System 8 (works also under Sys 7 using the new appearance control panel and extension).
Using Cronotask is absolutely easy and fast, in few minutes you can setup your server automatic tasks.
No code to digit or cripting language and code to learn (and forget), Cronotask uses Mac controls to specify parameters .It's not a unix porting, it's a true Macintosh program!
When you look at a panel to specify a task you don't need to read manuals !
Cronotask is really a 'control station' for your Mac, using it you can run any maintenance task you like during the night, when your Mac is unattended without having to stop services during the day.
Cronotask it's Mac only and this new version 1.1 as a finder like interface you'll love!
