Umm the obvious reply would be to go to download.com and browse to see if they have a
shareware version of a cron like application, i am sure they do... i remember seeing
some of those.
Otherwise, code a simple php or c or delphi or visual basic app that only does
while (1)
sleep(60*60);
exec('application')
end
Can't be that hard to write right? :)
or even if you wanted it -on- every hour and not every hour, just do a
if ( frac (time() / (60*60) ) == 0) {
exec('application')
}
(ie if the dividable time / 'seconds in hour' has no fraction (behind the . or ,
depending on locality, its on the hour)
I realy hope this wont become a windows support mailing list though, thats kinda
outside of the scope of php-gtk? :)
