Emmescron Technical Info

Calendar operates likes the Unix version and prints to the open window those lines in /cron/data/calendar.txt which contain todays date. You can edit this file to put in dates you wish to be reminded of using any text editor that produces ascii output. The only caveat at the moment is that dates must have a specific format. The month must be 3 letters with the first capitalized and the day must be 2 digits. Thus "Nov 02" is correct but "Nov 2" and "November 2" are not. Similarly, "Jun 04" is correct, but "June 4" and "JUNE 04" are not. Numerical dates like "9/3" or "09/03" also do not work. This will be corrected in a later version.

After proper installation, cron automatically will be started in background whenever Windows (tm) is (re)started.
