Out of frustration, I'm in the process of writing an improved cron that satisfies my particular needs. As long as I was at it, I figured I might as well put in the "user crontab" idea from V.2. The only problem is I don't have any idea what it looks like, so I can't make mine compatible. It's probably illegal to send me a copy of the man page, but if somebody could summarize the relevant differences between /usr/lib/crontab and user crontabs (e.g., how does cron find them, and are there any restrictions?), I'd sure appreciate it. Please *mail* responses; I don't even read this group regularly, and there is no reason to clutter up the net with this. Thanks in advance. -- Geoff Kuenning ...!ihnp4!trwrb!desint!geoff
