+====== CobraMUSH MUSHCron ======
+[[:About | CobraMUSH]] utilizes [[people:grapenut:Jeremy Ritter]]'s MUSHCron system using a @cron command which simulates a [[wp>Unix]] [[:Crontab]] in much similarity.
+@CRON
+  Syntaxes:
+            @cron
+            @cron/add[/<type>] <cronjob>=<cronspec> <object>/<attribute>
+            @cron/set <cronjob>=[!]<flag>
+            @cron/list [<cronjob>]
+            @cron/delete <cronjob>
+  Synposis: Manages the ingame MUSHCron system.
+In order to use this command you must possess the 'Cron' Power. This command alone with no switches will display all the @cron specs you control.
+  @cron/add creates or alters the job named <cronjob>.  The <type> given
+  specified whether the attribute holds functions or commands.  If
+  <object> is "global" then the cronjob will execute the job on all
+  objects the 'executor' that adds the cronjob controls.
+  @cron/set sets or unsets a flag on <cronjob>. Valid flags are:
+    COMMAND
+    FUNCTION  (not enabled as of this writing)
+    HALT
+A cronjob may only be of the 'COMMAND' type as now for executing, functions are disabled.  If the Halt status is set on a @cron job then the job will not be processed.
+  @cron/list will show information about the cronjobs. If you specify
+  <cronjob> you will see more information about the cronspec for that job.
+  @cron/delete will remove <cronjob> from the crontab.
+Default global cronjobs are included, being an 'Hourly' and a 'Daily'
+Daily spec triggering the 'Daily' attribute at the beginning of each day and the Hourly spec triggering the 'Hourly' Attribute at the beginning of each Hour.
+A cronspec describes at which time a cronjob will be executed. The fields of a valid cronspec are as follows:
+    <minutes> <hours> <days of month> <months> <days of week>
+-59     0-23        0-30         0-11         0-6
+                                      Jan-Dec      Sun-Mon
+Each field may contain a range of numbers, e.g. 2-5, or a * to indicate 0 through the maximum for that field.
+A skip value can be used to select values from a range. It is specified as /<skip>, e.g. 0-23/2 would execute at 0, 2, 4, etc. until 22.
+You can specify a list of values in each field, seperated with a comma. e.g. 0,2,4,6,10-14,20-30/5.
+For the months and days of the week you may specify the english names or 3 letter abbreviations. January and Sunday are 0.
