I’ve mentioned a few times before in my essays that
launchd
simply rocks. It can slice, dice, and peel your tomatoes. As is already fairly well covered on the web, it can replaceinit
and watchdog like processes all in one feel swoop. What hasn’t gotten a lot of attention, however, are some of its other talents. In this essay, I’m going to focus on how it replacescron
. Yes, our venerable friend cron is due for replacement andlaunchd
brings on the goodness.
