Need exactly same thing for cloud

Hi,

This is great, I was looking for the same thing just the difference is, I do not have Linux box and I have multiple corn jobs running on Azure cloud in the form of Azure function. how can I list them?

Implement day of week cycle '#'

Could be nice to have the '#' implemented 👍

Extract from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron

Hash (#) '#' is allowed for the day-of-week field, and must be followed by a number between one and five. It allows specifying constructs such as "the second Friday" of a given month.[[19]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron#cite_note-20) For example, entering "5#3" in the day-of-week field corresponds to the third Friday of every month.

Right now, this format is not supported. Example to execute a job every 2nd Wednesdays of each month:

$ echo "30 0 * * 3#2 job1" | ./croncal.pl
Parsing line 1: invalid range/not a range for field - 3#2 - of type dow, skipping line

Daylight savings time clock changes are not handled

When the clocks go forward, the missing hour is correctly missing.

But when the clocks go back, the duplicate events are not shown, presumably because the hash key is just overwritten.
