start with EXACTLY as it is in the example
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.
I did that, and it still didn't work. When you say "you need to start the cron daemon" do you mean I can't use at and need to use cron or that at relies on the cron daemon?
If so, what is a good way to start cron? classic crontab -e and enter some jobs? I'm working with a classic unix book, and thus far have found everything to work through the bash terminal in a pretty predictable way, until now. I know that Apple built a bunch of tools on top of the basic unix and that laucnhd has taken the place of cron and other traditional daemons - is that what we are dealing with here?
