ATRUN(8)
ATRUN(8) 💅 run jobs queued for later execution
Straight outta the Linux Programmer's Manual, bestie — this is the whole atrun vibe check, and it's honestly giving "small but iconic." 🎀
🌸 NAME 🌸
atrun — run jobs queued for later execution.
✨ SYNOPSIS ✨
atrun [-l load_avg] [-d]The synopsis lists -l load_avg and -d, but this page does not break them down any further — so I'm not gonna invent lore, fr fr. 🙈
💖 DESCRIPTION 💖
Okay so atrun runs jobs that were queued by at(1). That's the main character job. 👑
Here's the tea: atrun is a shell script — yes, literally a shell script — and it invokes /usr/sbin/atd with the -s option. It's provided for backward compatibility with older installations, so it's basically legacy support with good posture. 💅
No cap: that's the whole description. Short, sweet, and not trying to be mysterious. ✨
