Hello, I have a script that is designed to monitor network activity for me. Every hour i would like it to send me an email but i donot know how i can set it up so that it will be emailed to me every hour... I would like to have a loop that is never ending, and some sort of wait command, that will run the script before its self and when the timer hits zero it will resume and end up back at the timer... if that sounds confusing then heres what id like it to look like... 
endless_loop()
{
#script line 1
#script line 2
#script line 3
#script line 4
wait (3600);
}

Thanks Cody
