I understand the purpose of these to be to run something repeatedly, with some
predefined interval between times.
I'm wondering
- how relevant would that sort of thing be to our context i.e. file-management

- can that sort of thing be achieved by simply running one of those existing
things from within e2 ?
Thoughts ?
