@sdetweil For sure. I just hadn’t thought about that usecase till now. It’s just a little helper to things done without the need for writing a dedicated module and do some hacking. So I’d prefer to keep it free of dependencies.
That said, anyone in the need for a cron might be better off with MMM-ModuleScheduler. Hadn’t known about this (I’m pretty new to MM), but it seems to be the one @Snille is actually using, despite he mentioned the profile switcher instead? And it seems to do exactly what the the op asked for: https://github.com/ianperrin/MMM-ModuleScheduler#individual-module-schedules
