I was trying to use the 'at' command.
Does it not have "resolution" to the second?
When I run it with 'at -f /tmp/tt.sh "01/21/2013 15:20:45" syntax error. Last token seen: 15:20 Garbled time
How do I run a command in the future including "seconds".
Thanks,
Jerry
I think you're limited to 1 minute granularity. But if you want to run something at a specific second (ie: 13 seconds after the minute), you could modify the script to sleep for 13 seconds before running and run it on the minute, or prepend a sleep in the cron entry itself:
* * * * * sleep 13; touch /tmp/foo
