Sounds like we need to port cron to IBM i.

Depends on which cron implementation; there are many. The basic ones
are similar to the basic IBM i job scheduler in capability.

I wouldn't mind one of the fancier implementations, but I am not sure
the other folks here would go for it. Are there nice user front-ends
for cron these days? (By "user" I mean operators, admins, and
programmers!) The cron expressions in crontab files are pretty darn
arcane and cryptic.
