- Gnome-schedule 2.0.0 -

Gnome-schedule is a graphical user interface that leverages the power
of crontab (vixie-cron, dcron) and at to manage your crontab file and
provide an easy way to schedule tasks on your computer. It supports
recurrent (periodical) tasks and tasks that happen only once in the
future. It is written in Python using pygtk, and has been developed,
tested and packaged for various Linux distributions.

More information is at our homepage:
http://gnome-schedule.sourceforge.net together with screenshots.

This is a fresh release with a completely redone user interface,
cleaned up to be more simple and easier to use, we have implemented
many of the suggestions we have recieved for our previous versions and
hope that this is a positive change to gnome-schedule, a more complete
list is attached below.

Summary of big changes and new features:

	∘ You can now run task directly from the main window and have the
output displayed in a terminal window.
	∘ The file-menu has been removed
	∘ The toolbar has been cleaned up and stripped down to the necesarry.
	∘ We have rearranged the list of tasks to have more space for the
important stuff.
	∘ The status bar is only there if it has something reasonable to say.

	∘ We are using two fixed icons for crontab and at tasks.
	∘ You can easily choose which type of task you want to create with a
drop down box.
	∘ The main window remembers size and position.
	∘ We redesigned the template system, you know choose them from a list
and there is another window to manage them. You edit them in the
familiar editors, and you can as well add new ones directly from the
editors.

now uses buttons not radiobuttons.

will see the advanced boxes update accordingly as you use the simple
combobox to choose your time expression, this leaves the editor
without tabs

as template' while editing a task
