Here is my crontab : [alex@ROISSY Palm]$ crontab -l # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall. # (/tmp/crontab.7213 installed on Mon Feb 10 17:19:12 2003) # (Cron version -- $Id: crontab.c,v 2.13 1994/01/17 03:20:37 vixie Exp $) 30 19 * * * /home/alex/backup.sh 01 17 * * * /home/alex/Documents/Palm/plucker/calvin.sh And attached is the calvin.sh script (basically it just takes the daily Calvin and Hobbes comic strip from a website, and converts it). Thanks a lot for your time, I really appreciate that. -- Alexandre Aractingi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
