Scheduling Jobs Is Done! The ability to schedule jobs on a daily or weekly basis is done. And with it the following four new commands.

  • GetJobs: lists any currently setup jobs.
  • AddDailyJob: adds a command as a daily job.
  • AddWeeklyJob: same as daily, but on a weekly schedule.
  • RemoveJob: as you've guessed removes a job.

The add commands can take a date and time which should be in UTC time. The command can be any valid CSH command, but it might be a good idea to append ' > emailme' at the end so the results are emailed to you. If you don't care about the results, just issue the command as you normally would.

adddailyjob "my job name" command:"twt/timeline > emailme"

The above will schedule a job starting one minute from now and repeating every day to email you the Twitter timeline at the time the job runs.

We hope this is useful and look forward to any feedback you have.
