The fcron Portfile 46099 2009-01-29 14:37:40Z macsforever2000 macports.org $

PortSystem 1.0

Name: fcron
Version: 3.0.4
Category: sysutils
Platform: darwin
Maintainers: yahoo.com:compconsultant
Description: fcron is an alternative scheduler aka cron daemon
Long Description: fcron is a scheduler. It aims at replacing Vixie Cron, so it implements most of its functionalities. But contrary to Vixie Cron, fcron does not need your system to be up 7 days a week, 24 hours a day : it also works well with systems which are not running neither all the time nor regularly (contrary to anacrontab).

--->  Extracting fcron
--->  Configuring fcron
--->  Building fcron with target all

--->  Staging fcron into destroot

--->  Installing fcron
