hi there, i have not programmed with python since high school. But i thought it would be good for a little program which i need to write, all it needs to do is run a scripts (.sh) at a timmer interval, this application will be called from a script at system start and run until the system has been shutdown, now is this possible with python, i believe so but im not sure, or is there another programming ;language which would be better suited.
Thanks for the help, and sorry for being such a newb.

Hi.

You can no doubt do this with Python, yes, but what you are describing would probably be better done without any programming language. Assuming we are talking about a Unix/Linux system here, you would usually do better to use Cron to schedule the execution of your scripts. Windows also has a task scheduler like that.
