Karl, thanks for your suggestion. On my Debian system,
'at' seems to be
its own package:
amanda cn2:~$ aptitude show at
Package: at
State: installed
Automatically installed: no
Version: 3.1.8-11
Priority: important
Section: admin
Maintainer: Ryan Murray <rmurray debian.org>
Uncompressed Size: 209k
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.4-4), mail-transport-agent
Description: Delayed job execution and batch processing
At and batch read shell commands from standard input
storing them as a
job to be scheduled for execution in the future.
Use
at to run the job at a specified time
batch to run the job when system load levels permit
amanda cn2:~$
I guess my next step is to write to the package maintainer
or author,
even though I try to avoid writing to an individual to ask
questions
like this.
Thanks, again, for your help and advice.
-Kevin

Subject: Re: Proper list for 'at' command questions?
Can anyone suggest the proper mail list to ask questions
regarding
the
'at' batch commands?
I am not sure if there is any GNU version of `at' yet. You
should be
able to use whatever package commands your system uses to
discover what
package it belongs to, and then the package information
should tell
where it came from. For instance, on my Red Hat system, rpm
-qli
gives a bunch of information about it. (It seems RH itself
might have
written it; not sure.)
HTH,
karl
