I prefer to keep related functionality as together as possible. I can't remember that I've seen the extra header for other cron's. That means that the scripts need to be modified when moving them from or to a Debian system. Not a good idea, generally. I don't think doing "crontab -l > foo; crontab foo" should modify the crontab. That's counter-intuitive. -- Please read <http://www.iki.fi/liw/mail-to-lasu.html> before mailing me. Please don't Cc: me when replying to my message on a mailing list.
