This folder contains examples of CLImate scripts created to use with Cron Manager. You can drag either the actual script or an alias of it into the Cron Events Folder.
CLImate is our command line interface and scripting system for the Macintosh. It lets your script your Macintosh using BASIC. If you do not have a copy of CLImate and wish to purchase one, please contact us at the address below. You can apply the price you paid for Cron Manager to the purchase of CLImate within the first 30 days.
Here is a list of sample scripts and a brief explanation of what they do:
Sun 1.00 Restart/no ask - restart your Mac Sunday's 1:00 AM without asking
9.00 Restart/ask - restart your Mac 9:00 AM every day but ask first
+480 Shutdown/ask - shutdown your Mac 8 hrs after startup but ask first
-.00 *60 Hourly chime - give a chime (two beeps) every hour
2/29/- Do this every… - run this script every leap year on leap day
17.00 Empty Trash - empty your trash everyday at 5:00 PM
NOTE: CLImate will not let you load another script from outside its command shell window (e.g. you cannot double-click another CLImate script document while CLImate is running). In order to ensure that all scripts run successfully, make sure that each script quits CLImate by including the "quit" command at the end of your script. All example scripts included use the "quit" command.
