Hi, I use Putty and JAWS version 9. JFW does not work well with the VI editor so what I do is the following when I need to replace the crontabs: crontab -l > myfile I then make all my changes in UltraEdit. The problem now is that I cannot find my documentation as to how to put the new crontabs back to replace the old ones. I think that it is the following: crontab myfile I am not sure though. Can anyone help me with this? I know that it is a very simple statement to get this done, but... Thanks for any help.
