In depth

A closer look at Script Timer X 2.1

Script Timer will run your AppleScript, perl, or shell scripts, as well as applications, at any time of the day on a daily, weekly, weekdays only, monthly, or one time basis as well as at regular time intervals ranging from one minute to any number of weeks with specifiable start and stop times. You can also use the program to invoke actions when the computer enters or leaves an idle state. Using a feature called Dynamic Scheduling, you can arrange for an AppleScript script to schedule any other script or application at a time of its choice.

Script Timer has two modules, a scheduling engine with an extremely small memory footprint that is designed to run unobtrusively in the background, and a graphical user interface (GUI) application with drag and drop functionality for creating and manipulating scheduling data files. The scheduling engine runs in the user domain, which allows it to be easily controlled by a Start/Stop button in the GUI program, and provides for greater security. A log file records each action, including error messages and optional messages returned from a script, allowing for easy troubleshooting and script results recording. The application comes with several sample scripts that illustrate its use, including examples of Finder and third party application scripting, and the use of parameterized scripts. Also included is Track Timer, a script that provides an interface between Script Timer and iTunes for automatic music play.
