RE: Cronjob

If you crontab -e and a job is scheduled to run during the time that you are editing, then the job doesn't execute while you are editing. No jobs will execute while you're in crontab -e. Even if you :w your changes. No cronjobs will execute while the editor is open so don't forget to close that editor when you finish.

I learned this from experience (HP-UX)

Final Answer!

Just guessing though.
Is that what you're lookin fer?

crontab -e is bad!

1000 points if you can figure out why.
