Just released systab — a single-file Bash script that gives you a cron-like interface for systemd user timers.

If you've ever wanted the simplicity of crontab but the power of systemd timers, this might be for you. Natural language schedules, desktop/email notifications, a crontab-style editor, and persistent services — all without leaving the terminal.

@opennomad yeah, its not exactly the same as timers, and can't do certain things that timers can do, but works for me
