Running from cron job about imagesnap HOT 2 OPEN

Oh, damn, I remembered how I fucking got around that!

The cron task sent a command to an always-running tmux server that tells it to create a new pane, and then run the command inside it.

It's absolutely stupid, but it absolutely worked.

For posterity, my invocation is something like this: */20 * * * * /usr/local/bin/tmux new-window -t startup ~/bin/something 2>&1 >> ~/something.log

Where startup is a named and running tmux server.

I'm having a similar issue on a new OS X Ventura install, except I get zero output at all in cron - even the echo statements that precede the invocation of imagesnap don't get routed to my mailbox or anywhere else.

I had a similar issue with a previous version of OSX, but didn't manage to write down how I solved it!

I believe it's due to how permissions are now handled in OSX, but that doesn't help me much.

Someone I know linked me to these two sources, which I guess I'll try later tonight:
