- a given time and date.
-
- EZCron is unlike other Cron programs in that it gives the user a complete
- Graphic User Interface for controlling your programs start time, start
- date, arguments, sound sample on start time, and even text reminder
- strings! EZCron makes it easy to add, edit, enable, disable and delete
- existing events using an easy to use GUI. No more messing around with
- unix like cron config files and hard to learn syntax. EZCron makes it
- easy! Online help included with the touch of a button.
-
- Give this program 3 days and you'll wonder how you ever managed without it!
-
- NOW IN ITS 8TH RELEASE.
-
-
- ********IMPORTANT********
-
- As of version 2.00 of EZCron, a lot has changed. Please DELETE the
- contents of your old EZCron directory before installing this one.
- You can also copy the old one into another directory if you like.
