Kcron
From MEPIS Documentation Wiki
KCron is an application for scheduling programs to run in the background. It is a graphical user interface to cron, the UNIX system scheduler. It is driven by a configuration file named crontab that specifies shell commands to run periodically on a given schedule. It can be installed through Synaptic.
When Kcron opens, you will see a list of tasks and variables. To create a new scheduled task, first select the Tasks folder. Then click Edit --> New.... You can also right-click and choose New..., or press Ctrl+N. A self-explanatory dialogue box opens up where you identify the program you want to run and decide when it will run.
