This still isn't really right, and is wordier than it need be. The built-in task scheduler in
most recent Windowses is called Task Scheduler (!), so the original problem was really just one of
missing capitalization. I'd suggest a better solution would be:
"This type of usage is ideal for scripts which are executed
at scheduled intervals (e.g. using cron on Linux/Unix or Task
Scheduler on Windows), or simple text processing tasks. See the
section about ..."
Cheers!
