It seems that MacOSX disables the UNIX batch/at commands. Is there a recommended replacement for these commands?
 
Well, you could enable at - just put the line

*/5 * * * * root /usr/libexec/atrun

at the end of /etc/crontab
 
Yes, I do realize one could simply re-enable the function. But clearly Apple has a reason for disabling it (power management I believe), and I wonder if they've implemented or recommended a replacement that has the same functionality.
