Summary [ Scheduling job in cron for 1st sunday every month ]

My original question in forwarded mail.

The best answer was from John Julian who provided the 1 liner syntax to be
put directly in crontab file.

"0 1 1-7 * * [ `date +\%a` = Sun ] && /script/to/run"

Many of you have responded with modifying the script, which was also
correct but still need some more work.

Lastly, some of you responded with modifying the cron such that change the
date field to 1-7 and day field
to be 6. But, this won't work as needed because these fields work as "OR"
condition and not AND as many
of you might have thought.
