Introduced by Paul Vixie into vixiecron, subsequently adopted by a number of cron implementations. HP's is, unfortunately, not one of them. Sun's might, AIX doesn't.

The Schedule::Cron module does support this notation, along with adding any other extenders you like since you can have your own dispatcher.
