I love cron, but I am mainly (85%) on windows with my apps and

voluminous and have more errorpoints.
Last I checked, Windows has this "at" command, the underpinnings of
which are remarkably similar (read: stolen from) the Un*x "at" command
upon which "cron" (and Windows "Scheduled Tasks") are built.
So you could probably use "at" on all systems reliably, with minor (or
no) tweaks to anything.
If not, I'm betting that you could bundle an opensource "cron" into
your distribution process a heck of a lot faster and more reliably
than hacking up a bogus cron-like substance within PHP...
I tried the "AT" thingy also, but I am not very confident about
errorlogging and it opens up an IMHO too big difference in Windows
and Unix handling of my app's installation and maintenance process,
so I think I will give my cron solution a try...
