I'd like to have my iMac set up so that the Climate Prediction model will start running again after a power failure. I have an UPS that has software to restart the computer when the power comes back up. It's easy to get Terminal going again but I haven't been able to figure out how to get the model running again without a little human intervention. I'd appreciate any suggestions you can give me.

I don't know the definitive answer, but I know it has something to do with the terminal command "cron" and creating a short script. Perhaps you can search for "cron" and find the answer.
