NAME
       at - execute commands at a later time

SYNOPSIS
       at time [month day] [file]

EXAMPLES
       at 2315 Jan 31 myfile
			   # Myfile executed Jan 31 at 11:15 pm

       at 0900		   # Job input read from stdin

       at 0711 4 29	   # Read from stdin, exec on April 29

DESCRIPTION
       At prepares a file to be executed later at the specified time by creat‐
       ing a special entry in /usr/spool/at.  The cron daemon  takes  care  of
       executing  these	 jobs.	It checks to see if any files in /usr/spool/at
       should now be run, and if so, it	 runs  them  and  then	puts  them  in
       /usr/spool/at/past.   The  name of the file created in /usr/spool/at by
       at is YY.DDD.HHMM.UU (where YY, DDD, HH, and MM give the time  to  exe‐
       cute  and  UU is a unique number).  Note that when the command runs, it
       will not be able to use standard input unless specifically  redirected.
       Standard output will be mailed to the owner of the job.

SEE ALSO
       cron(8).
