[PLUG] Utility to evaluate/debug crontab files

["Sandhu, Suchindra" <suchindra@gmail.com>]

Hello all,

Is there a way to evaluate crontab files ? Whenever I edit my crontab,
I keep getting error messages such as:

<snip>
Your "crontab" on nets-dev1
	                                                                     
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                  !
             
	unexpected end of line
This entry has been ignored.
</snip>

Then I hack around whitespaces and newlines till I rectify the error.
It would be nice to have a utility to debug such errors in a visually
helpful way.


Thanks,
