    azureus timer

    How can I start azureus at a certain time?
    I tried with gnome-schedule but it cannot start it.
    It will run from the application menu or terminal or in sessions but I could not find a way to get it to start at a specific time.

    Thanks in advance for any ideas.
    I would rather be Ubuntu-ing.

    Don't shake my hand. I don't want your germs.

    You could use cron. It's a utility to run a specific command at specific intervals. It's a little more than I can explain here, but here are two links that explain it pretty well and give examples.

    I hope those help.
