Bug report

There is a misspelt word. It should be Wednesday instead of Wedensday.

[don570]

Here's a tip to record audio to a partition where you have lot of empty space.

I store potential commands in NoteCase program.

[Frank Cox]

I finally got Pschedule to work but prefer the command line.

Type crontab -e and then hit control a to open the menu.

Type in the minutes hour etc.
No path to the program is needed. For instance I prefer vlc to aqualung so I type vlc /root/reminders/sometune.ogg

Then save as in the menu and exit.

Pschedule 0.9
First time I have looked at Pschedule.
It looks great, similar to cronnix on the mac.
I have some crontabs already working.
Selecting one and clicked "Run", nothing happened!
But it works fine when triggered by crond.
Am I using "Run" wrong?
--ALSO--
Pschedule is not smart (yet?) about commented ("#") schedules, but I suppose that is on your todo list.

More info:
Quirky 1.3

0 13 * * * urxvt -g 64x9+0+0 -e vi /root/my-documents/note.txt

At 1pm each day open a console of size 64x9 with vi displaying the file note.txt

It works fine with crond, but from the "Run" button.

This is a listing of my test crontab:

This time I selected the fourth item, only opened the edit panel, closed it and quit:

/usr/local/pschedule/func_human_to_cron: line 40: [: : integer expression expected

Of course, only one is active at a time, except for this manual test.

[broomdodger]

I edited the file (line numbers at the start of line):
/usr/local/pschedule/func_human_to_cron

39 if [ "$MINUTE" = "00" ]; then MINUTE="0"; fi
40 if [ "$MINUTE" \> "0" ] && [ "$MINUTE" \< "10" ]; then MINUTE=`echo "$MINUTE" | tr -d 0`; fi
41 if [ "$HOUR" = "00" ]; then HOUR="0"; fi
42 if [ "$HOUR" \> "0" ] && [ "$HOUR" \< "10" ]; then HOUR=`echo "$HOUR" | tr -d 0`; fi
43 DAY=`echo "$DAY" | tr -d .`

Tested with this:
02 13 * * * /usr/bin/urxvt -e vi /root/my-documents/note.txt

The "Edit" button did not leave an error message,
and parsed the string as: 2 13 * * *

[broomdodger]

Another guess, and the "Run" button now works.
Edit to line 2, adding quotes around $TREE (grep "$TREE")
Because there are spaces in the command string.

/usr/local/pschedule/func_run

1 #! /bin/bash
2 TREE=`cat /tmp/pschedule-treeitems | grep "$TREE" | cut -d "|" -f 3 | cut -c 2-` #jake_take

I have added the fix from broomdodger, and uploaded a new pet.
Thank you for helping!!!
