Need something like cronjob

[Hypo]

I need some kind of thingie, that will run my 10 separate cgi scripts at half hour intervals. But I need them to start only after I tell them to, like click a start button or something.

Not like crotnab that will submit every day at its set time. In this case I will start it off everyday and it will run those 10 cgi scripts at half hour intervals.

How can I do this?

cron jobs can be set to run every half hour if you want. you could set up a single script which would run all 15 cron jobs in order if a certain file existed, and have that script run every 30 minutes. and then you'd set up a cgi that would create that file which would start the thing off (at the next 30 minute interval) if the file didn't exist, it wouldn't run the scripts.
