post-hibernation tasks



Hi there,

I am enjoying having suspend2 running on my desktop (yay!) and now
want to tweak it a bit.  On resume I'd like to have acouple ofhtings
happen:

- I want to run getmail for the main user -- this is the mosti
mportant
- also I'd like to check regarding various cronjobs tht haven't been
excuted.  I think anacron will do osme of this, but I am thinking
about, e.g.:  when this machine was always on, I had a script that
automatically recorded my favourite radio station during certain hours
of hte day (using streamripper).  Now I would like to modify this so
htat, when the machine wakes up, it checks in with some script to see
whether we're in the recordable timeslot; if so, it picks up recording
and continues until the end of the timeslot.  I htink there may be
other similar tasks, which like this one should be run if possible,
but if not it'sreally no big deal.  

SO just wondering if anyone has ideas how to do such a thing.

thanks much,

matt
