10.4: Use a graphical GUI to create launchd tasks
Authored by: klktrk on Dec 14, '05 12:31:06AM

All hail the mighty Lingon. I've been using it for a while and it has taught me more about launchd than the Apple docs ever did. Using it, I have turned off the periodic tasks, and instead created a daemon that runs XJanitor on a recurring cycle. Alternatively, of course, you can change the various periodice maintenance tasks to be recurring now anyway, but I like the way XJanitor gives me feedback about what it's doing, and how long until the next weekly, monthly, or daily task will be run. Lingon is great stuff and I'm grateful to the developer for the long hours invested in it.
