Wrong range for seconds causes infinite loop

Hi Roland You have a bug in Schedule::Cron when specifying cron times with seconds, eg: * * * * * */10 Your @RANGE for seconds should be 0,59, not 0.60: my @RANGES = ( [ 0,59 ], [ 0,23 ], [ 0,31 ], [ 0,12 ], [ 0,7 ], [ 0,59 ] ### WAS [0,60] ); At the moment, the cron daemon goes into an infinite loop and chews CPU big time! thanks Clint

Hi Clint, thanx for your report, you are absolutely right. I fixed it (including a test), currently it is available on github. I will release a 1.00_1 rather soon, expect the final 1.00 near the end of this year (celebrating Schedule::Crons 10th anniversary ;-), but if pressure is high enough, I will release earlier, of course.
