- ! could someone please tell me how to implement a weekly schedule
- ! indicator in tcsh.
- !
- ! i want to be reminded whenever i have something to do on a particular day.
- ! for example, if i have a 3pm lecture on wednesday, then i should get beeped:
- ! *GO TO LECTURE*
- !
- ! anyone know how to do this? if not in shell, then in any available language.
-
- Do not believe that a ([UP]*ix) "shell" is ever going to be substituting
- for all the innumerous and surprisingly often useful pieces of goods imple-
- mented since day seventeen.
-
- Please resort to "at" or personal "crontab" entries (if on your system).
- `man 1 crontab' or `man 1 at' should offer some hints......
