Sample Description

Sample - The missing link in the POSIX-compliant cron-family of task scheduling tools Sample is the missing link in the POSIX-compliant cron-family of task scheduling tools. Sample waits for their timestamp/filesize to hit a threshold thereby executing a specified command to handle the files and monitors files on a user-by-user basis.Sample will only "sample" matched files if the active user has _write_ access to the file and it does not contain non-printable characters, it will not process the matched file at any level otherwise.Sample will only process unique users with unique home directories, this is done on a first-come frist-serve basis. So, if a user or home directory is first in the /etc/passwd file (including network users) and another entry has the same user or home directory that other user will not be processed at any level.Here are some key features of "Sample":· OSIX-compliant, portable on unix-based systems.· Simple, easy to understand syntax and quick to learn.· Versatile, capable for use in many situations.· Fast, run quickly and restricted if need be.· Small, leave a small footprint in memory and execution.· Expandable, can grow without changing the core syntax.· Secure, as much as possible running arbitrary commands.
