:) Alan, Currently I'm not quite sure what and how I want to do it, so far I've been poking around a bit in the std library to see what options there are to create a sceduling script. Finaly I'd like to be able to have a program do the following, using a "simple" ini_file: for every workingday of a week: from 7.00 until 17.00: every minute: capture a frame and save it at noon: compile a video from the frames gathered this morning do some file manipulations at 17.00: compile a video from the frames gathered this afternoon do some file manipulations on friday 17.00: compile a movie from a selection ( every n_th) of the frames of this week ... The time_lapse function was a first attempt in creating something that starts and stops at a certain time and triggers some actions inbetween. Then I thougth I could use it as the main loop that triggers all the other actions, but then I have to able to change the start and stop times for these from the intial time_lapse loop. Looking at Danny's code, I think a threaded sheduler + shared qeue would be a better approach, but that's something completly new to me.
