GNOME 3590 Published by

Gnome-schedule 2.0.2 has been released



It turns out that a bug in Python 2.4's locale module has affected the two latest Gnome Schedule releases, this release comes with yet a new way to work with at. And I hope our efforts to create a backend that is compatible with all distributions, locales and versions of at finally has borne fruits. For those that it interests we are now using the POSIXLY_CORRECT environment variable to get an expected output.

Gnome-schedule is a graphical user interface that leverages the power of crontab (vixie-cron, dcron) and at to manage your crontab file and provide an easy way to schedule tasks on your computer. It supports recurrent (periodical) tasks and tasks that happen only once in the future. It is written in Python using pygtk, and has been developed, tested and packaged for various Linux distributions.

Fixed in this release:
* New parsing system for the at backend
* Using the new icon for applet
