Hello Group,
Could anyone please tell me if there is a timer function in Perl. I am trying to get some perl code to run every morning, but I am unsure how to do it.
You could always sleep() for a day between runs, but that seems far too clumsy.
To me what you asked is a Operating System question. On Unix, I would use cron to run the script ever morning, for example.
