Maybe a way to cheat the rules
Are you familiar with PC Windows?
Read up on scheduling tasks (accessories, system tools, scheduled tasks)
[note, some versions of windows might be a bit different to get there]
Create a scheduled task to run some 1.bat file
In normal operation, this 1.bat file will do no work
Now, on unix, create a text file of your 1.bat file to run on Windows
ftp it to your PC
Now, at the next scheduled execution, it will run.
Some things to think about:
may want to create a 2.bat
have the last line of 1.bat call 2.bat
but, the 2.bat file deletes the 1.bat file you just moved and ran once
AND, makes the 1.bat into its do-nothing original format

pod::perldoc::tortf
Pod::Perldoc::ToRtf(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Pod::Perldoc::ToRtf(3pm)
NAME
Pod::Perldoc::ToRtf - let Perldoc render Pod as RTF
SYNOPSIS
perldoc -o rtf Some::Modulename
DESCRIPTION
This is a "plug-in" class that allows Perldoc to use Pod::Simple::RTF as a formatter class.
This is actually a Pod::Simple::RTF subclass, and inherits all its options.
You have to have Pod::Simple::RTF installed (from the Pod::Simple dist), or this module won't work.
If Perldoc is running under MSWin and uses this class as a formatter, the output will be opened with write.exe or whatever program is spec-
ified in the environment variable "RTFREADER". For example, to specify that RTF files should be opened the same as they are when you dou-
ble-click them, you would do "set RTFREADER=start.exe" in your autoexec.bat.
Handy tip: put "set PERLDOC=-ortf" in your autoexec.bat and that will set this class as the default formatter to run when you do "perldoc
whatever".
