I am trying to find a public-domain utility which allows queueing
of jobs in a FIFO manner, to be executed later during low system
loads. This is typically the kind of batching you might find
implemented on a lot of DEC-VMS or IBM-MVS systems.
We're running Ultrix 4.0 on a VAX 8810.

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could provide any pointers in
this matter.

Many thanks in advance.
