A-Shell Development History

SUBMIT.LIT 3.1(146) now supports two convenience date alternatives when using the /AFTER switch under UNIX: "today" and "tomorrow". For example:

.SUBMIT TEST.CTL/AFTER:TOMORROW,02:15

This would queue the task to start tomorrow at 02:15 AM. This provides an easy way to resubmit a task to run at a specific time tomorrow without having to calculate the date. (The other method, /NEXT:0-1-0 suffers from the problem of time creep, since it schedules the task to run 24 hours from now, rather than at a specific time.)
