i looked at a couple of things briefly about it and it appeared to be some sort 
of special library... something about creating an instance of "foo" and then 
using that... i'm looking for a simply cron type applicatio nwhere i can list 
times of execution as well as being able to list a semaphore file name with 
which to trigger an execution...

i've never used operands, really... i just type in the key words i'm looking 
for information on...

eg: semaphore files scheduler

yeah, i never liked those common language engines, either ;)

If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until 
you hire an amateur.
