.Sh NAME
.Nm atrun
.Nd run jobs queued for later execution
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm atrun
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The

It is invoked periodically by
.Xr launchd 8
as specified in the

property list.
By default the property list contains the
.Em Disabled
key set to true, so
.Nm atrun
is never invoked.
.Pp
Execute the following command as root to enable
.Nm atrun :
.Dl "launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.atrun.plist"
.Pp
