Squeak 'cron'-like functionality?

Hi:

I did a quick search of the mailing list and didn't see anything that
jumped out so I thought I'd ask:

Are there any classes within Squeak that facilitate the scheduling of
a repetative action?  I was thinking more along the lines of CRON-like
functionality....some way that I could schedule an action to take place
at a specific time.

I suppose I could get creative with Delays and forking off a background
process, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a better way.

Thanks!
