Can > someone please refresh my memory as to what that command might've been? csh built-in 'sched' command perhaps?: sched -n (+) The first form prints the scheduled-event list. The sched shell variable may be set to define the format in which the scheduled-event list is printed. The second form adds command to the scheduled-event list. For example, > sched 11:00 echo It\'s eleven o\'clock. see the manpage for tcsh(1) for more details if so. -- Jez Hancock - System Administrator / PHP Developer http://munk.nu/
