`at' is required by POSIX, but I don't know of a GNU version of the application. There was a request to add it to coreutils last year (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2004-12/msg00030.html), but no one has taken on the task. Other than that, if cygwin does not have a POSIX-mandated utility, it is because no one has volunteered to port an existing open-source version, or to write it from scratch. `cron' is the next best tool, and if you set up cron correctly it does work; search the archives for help in setting up cron. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
