Re: Re: cron things

I'll speak up anyway.

The last hack will certainly work, but I'd prefer the ability (at least) to
have something cleaner for those cases where there is an easy way to have
per-user crontab entries.  Also, it should be pretty easy (hollow laugh) to
convert from the cleaner, fragmented form to the "hacked" form for those
systems that do not support crons of a more hearty vintage.
