NAME
catsit-timer — run
command at interval
SYNOPSIS
catsit-timer |
interval command ... |
DESCRIPTION
Thecatsit-timer utility runs a command at an interval.
The command is run once immediately, then again every
interval after waiting for the command to exit each
time. The catsit-timer utility is not appropriate for
scheduling commands to run at specific times.
The format of the interval specifier is a
series of integers followed by units: s for seconds,
m for minutes and h for
hours. An integer with no unit is assumed to be in seconds. The
interval is the sum of each integer-unit pair. For
example, 1m30s is equivalent to
90s.
EXIT STATUS
If the command exits non-zero,
catsit-timer exits with the same status.
