Need Help Scripting
I would like to make a script that would download and save an image from a webcam every five minutes. I would like to make a time-lapse movie with the images. How would one go about doing something of that nature. I have no idea where to start so I will take any help.

Can you define the problem a little more? What system will it be running on? Will you always be logged in, or should this operate even if you're not logged in? On Unix, you can set a cron job...

Yeah sorry about that. I'm going to be doing this on WinXP as my Mac is a Laptop and not always on and/or connected. I am interested learning about a cron job.
