I want to make an app start and stop automatically. Open and close down that is.

I can do this easy in windows with Task Scheduler, but don't know how to do it in OSX. Automator doesn't seem to make any sense to me.

The app is aMule, a P2P app. I want it to run from midnight to 8am which is my off-peak internet time.

Any thoughts on either an app I can get, or an app already in OSX, or possibly a specific fix for aMule?

Any comments greatly appreciated.
