The crontab is the job scheduler under Linux. You can set any jobs running from 1 minute to 1 year or longer. To edit the jobs, you type in crontab -e.
The text-editor is default to nano but you can already change by using
1 | export VISUAL=vim |
export VISUAL=vim
Each line specifies a job and the # starts a comment.
Another method is to run select-editor
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 | root@uploadbeta:~$ select-editor Select an editor. To change later, run 'select-editor'. 1. /bin/ed 2. /bin/nano <---- easiest 3. /usr/bin/vim.basic 4. /usr/bin/vim.tiny Choose 1-4 [2]: |
