Subject: [TUHS] Were cron and at done at the same time? Or one before the other?
Date: Tue, 8 Dec 2020 10:11:00 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAP6exYKLCru=iCx+gti-WsK8tCKZuJjaCmB9PxpiOQpXc0mK5A@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

When I got into Unix in 1976 cron and at were both there.

I got to wondering for no particular reason which came first -- I had
always assumed cron, but ...?

Anyone know?
