allow a scheduled rescan

Rescans should be schedulable, say, once a day
Dean, which would you prefer: a plugin complete with web settings? a button mode similar to AlarmClock with a section of Web::Setup to add web UI for setting the time/day/month?
ok, I have a plugin, but it uses a lot of duplicate code. I think it might be nice to move the scrollDigit and timedigit functions to Common.pm and allow them to be used by AlarmClock.pm as well as any other mode that might want to set a time. Sound ok?
Sounds reasonable...

Created attachment 70 [details] patch to rescan plugin to allow a timer This merges the ScanTimer plugin with the existing Rescan plugin. It allows a scheduled scan every 24 hours at the saved time.
new version of Rescan plugin now has a scheduler setting.
There are 536 bugs in the database with targets of '---' that were fixed prior to new year 2006. I am setting them to targets of 6.2.1 to keep them from showing up in my queries.
