Full Discussion: Using at utility on 10.8.2 not working

start with EXACTLY as it is in the example
Code:
at now <<!
cd /home/mydirectory
ls -ltr > /tmp/my.lis
!

If that fails to create the /tmp/my.lis, you need to start the cron daemon.
Keep working until the above example works.

Two points:
you cannot use any interactive program like an editor or one that creates a window like a web browser.

Post back here if you have trouble.

The <<! bit is called a here document. Read up on them so you know what is going on.
