\&\fBlr_cron\fR is designed to be called in a \fBcrontab\fR\|(5) entry.
\&\fIperiod\fR should be "hourly", "daily", "weekly", "monthly" or "yearly".

To run jobs as scheduled by \fBlire\fR\|(1), you will need to setup cron jobs. For each
schedule you use, you should configure a cron job to be executed according to
that period.

Here is a \fBcrontab\fR\|(5) entry that will make sure that all possible
schedules are supported in the /home/flacoste/myStore DLF store:
