tcron :  ATX power crond

epa

Tcron integrates 'cron' with ATX power-up capability. It can do multiple cron jobs with
power-up/shutdown a day. 

Purposes:
  1. Power up to play muisc/sound and shutdown. You can use it as an expensive/powerful alarm clock/reminder.
  2. Record TV/radio program

Advantages over the combination of atx power BIOS and a traditional cron:
  1. It can do multiple power-up/down a day;
  2. It can skip some days of a week. 
  3. It is easier to use. You don't have to setup both BIOS and cron.

System Requirements:
  1. Motherboard with ATX alarm power-up capability.
  2. Linux Kernel with /dev/rtc support
