How to use it

Install it as a service with:

icronservice /install /silent
Uninstall the service with:

icronservice /uninstall /silent
While the service is installed, start it with:

net start icron /filename=<filename>
and stop it with

net stop icron
If no /crontab argument is given, $WINDOWS_DIR%/crontab is used as the crontab file

The crontab is only read when the service starts - to reread it, stop and restart the service.

The syntax of the crontab file is identical to the Unix crontab; a series of lines specifying a command and the times to execute them at. For example:

10,12-13 4,5 * * * c:\execute.bat
will run "c:\execute.bat" at 4:10, 4:12, 4:13, 5:10, 5:12, and 5:13 every day.

The fields are minutes, hours, weekday, day of month, month, and "string to execute". * signifies all.
