[Cialug] Editing crontabs from CLI - ncurses?

[David Champion]

I know it's not exactly what you're looking for, but the Webmin module for 
managing cron that works really well.

There's a couple of things I use Webmin for that I could do on the cli 
with an editor, but are just easier... those are cron and samba. Have 
looked at some of the other tools (postfix, apache...) but I usually end 
up wanting to do something more advanced that Webmin didn't handle for me.

Looking to setup a simple admin interface for scheduling, .. there are a
few X based tools (e.g. Visual Cron), .. but I would really like to avoid
comlicating matters with an X session on remote machines.

A secondary goal is to setup management of cron tasks on a number of
remote machines.

Anyone ever seen such a tool?

 	TIA!
