Manage your scheduling account and activities database. Work with a collection of tools to add, remove, replace, and migrate any task entry with all associated deadlines, descriptions, and materials. Load and unload one or multiple files with task information.
Schedule Daily Task is a software that enables users to add daily tasks, such as applications, AppleScript (bundle) applications, or Automator workflow applications, to their launchd database. It also allows users to remove any task from the database. Apple recommends using launchd instead of cron for Mac OS 10.4 and later, and Schedule Daily Task also loads/unloads the task with launchctl so that any changes are effective immediately. Moreover, tasks will run even if the computer is off or sleeping when the time for a scheduled task occurs.
Schedule Daily Task can add daily tasks to, and remove any task from, your user account's launchd database. Tasks can be applications, AppleScript (bundle) applications, or Automator workflow applications. Apple recommends using launchd instead of cron if you have Mac OS 10.4 or later. Besides adding or deleting the .plist file which defines the task, Schedule Daily Task also also loads/unloads the task with launchctl, so that your add/delete is effective immediately.
Unlike cron jobs, if your computer is off or sleeping when the time for a scheduled task occurs, the task will run, belatedly, when your computer wakes up.
