dbuscron is cron-like DBUS events scheduler It's main target is Maemo 5. I wrote it for my N900 actually, so I can schedule tasks for different DBUS events. This package is prepared for Maemo 5 only, but the application itself can be used on any Linux system. It's configuration file is /etc/dbuscrontab. Use `dbuscrontab -e' command to edit it (run dbuscrontab without parameters to see help on command arguments). The format of dbuscrontab is really simple and very similar to crontab's one: it is a white-space separated table file, each not empty and not comment (the one with `#' at first column) line consists of 9 space separated fields: bus (`S' for system and `s' for session), event type (signal, method_call, method_return or error), event sender name, interface, object path, member, destination, event arguments (actually a semicolon-separated list of arguments to match) and shell command to run. Every field can contain `*' to match any value, or multiple possible values separated with comma. When run, daemon listens for these events and runs shell command for caught event. That's it!
