How do I do this in OS X

[Vlade]

In OS 9 I remember how to get the computer to start up and shut down at certain times, and I want to do this in OS X but I can't figure out how. I want to fold overnight, so I need my computer to start up at 1:00AM every night. How would I do this in OS X?

Why not just leave your machine on all the time?

Well most of the time I will, but half the time my computers in my room and its easier to get to sleep without it on... maybe I could get used to it though.

And I also wanted to know how to do this for my school, because they shut the emacs down every night, so I could have them fold from like 10:00 PM to 6:00AM every night without people shutting them off.

you can have them fold all the time or some of the time in the background with cron

if you're serious about it let me know and i'll give u full details or make a script for ur case
