NAME
atq - display the jobs queued to run at specified times
SYNOPSIS
atq [-c] [-n] [username...]
DESCRIPTION
The atq utility displays the at jobs queued up for the current user. at(1) is a utility that allows users to execute commands at a later

jobs belonging to the named user are displayed.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-c Displays the queued jobs in the order they were created (that is, the time that the at command was given).
-n Displays only the total number of jobs currently in the queue.
