  2 <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/P>
  3 <plist version="1.0">
  4 <dict>
  5   <key>Label</key>
  6   <string>autobackup</string>
  7   <key>Program</key>
  8   <string>php /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/xcloner-backup-and-restore/cloner.cron.php>
  9   <key>ProgramArguments</key>
 10   <array>
 11     <string>php /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/xcloner-backup-and-restore/cloner.cron.php>
