Im building an application that requires scheduled events.
I was hoping to build these events right into osx - so the user didn't have to have the app running all the time to 'catch' these events/schedules.


Is there a way of doing this?

Check out the following things:

launchd
cron
iCal (it can run AppleScripts etc. and you could integrate with that)
background-only applications (NSUIElement, NSBgOnly plist flags)
Kernel extensions
The Darwin source code


I can't give you any more precise plans because you've not been precise on what you actually want to do either.
