I just wrote a fcrontabs spell which creates /etc/cron.daily etc. and tells
fcron to run commands found in them at regular intervals. If you have a
spell, such as rottlog, for a program that needs to be run regularly, you can
now do so, at any of six intervals from a minute to a year.

Is /etc/cron.daily a file or a directory. If spells are to install
themselves into these cron-files, it might be handy if they are
directories. That way each spell may handle its own file - without
conflict.

But either way it sounds nice.=20

They are directories and work just as in Mandrake (I copied the run-parts
script from my other box). I couldn't make /etc/cron.d because fcron doesn't
have a way to handle that.
