It's a badly designed script which I used for fun, the only purpose of the script was to send gibberish to ROFL players when I am inspired, otherwise I use XQF for rcon administration.
It was also for me a way to experiment a "use case" I usually don't when writing scripts, I mean: using a dialog window for input (''zenity'').
Most of the time I write code in a mix of french/english without even questionning myself, I could tend to write exclusively in english for more serious programs, but then it depends too of who for it is.
Writing code in 2 languages has the advantage you can more easily separate formal instructions from real-world entities, attempts to give a meaning outside of the procedural.
But I don't write enough code so it's not like I could elaborate much on this :p
@Milan,
You have several solutions,
- Best would be to use crontab. If you can't use it directly, maybe the hosting service you're on has a particular option to planify cron tasks (like in some admin panel)
- Other would be to use a script which has a timed mechanism, I never do that but I suppose it's possible, like:
while true
do
sleep 5m
/opt/crcon #... + arguments, message, etc.
done
- Or use some other OA tool which already does that, but I don't know which one.
