Do any of you Mac netlanders know if something like UNIX cron exists for the Mac?, i.e., I need something that will launch an application under Multifinder (6.0.3) when a certain date and time occurs regardless of what else is happening on the system. I've tried AutoMac III, but it seems to "remember" what it is supposed to do relative to the application active when the macro is created. My needs would require a macro that is *independent* of the current application. Please reply via email and I will summarize if there is sufficient interest.
