Autolaunching scripts
Just popping in

Im sure this must be possible, but Im not really sure where to start to implement it (arexx maybe?)...... for the last few days Ive been trying to work out a way to get amiga os (3.x) to periodically check for certain conditions to be met (for conversations sake(although somewhat a random example), lets say a partition becomes full to within 50 meg) and then launch a script once those conditions are met. There must be a way to do this other than writing a dedicated program surely ?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

On UNIX systems, I'd use cron. Not tried any of these, but having a browse on Aminet yields:

Either that, or check out SpaceAgent, it's available for OS3 and OS4, and can do certain things when user preset thresholds are reached.

(after searching Aminet, and not finding it, I have made it available here)

I think you never released it (was available on the Hyperion FTP only)
