turn a script on and off ? or on a timer

[kain]

im sure someone here knows how to do this.
Im using the ".next" script, but i want to be able to turn it on and off when needed, or have the bot turn it on at a certian time, and set the channel to +m at the same time. then at the end of the set time period the bot would turn the script off and -m the channel.
any ideas ?
If yes, thanks in advance.

btw, nice new forum :}
