What's the "0 -" about?
0 * * * * wget -O - -q -t 1 http://www.example.com/cron.php
I've commented on http://drupal.org/node/31549
Thanks.
Which bit?
The
0 * * * *basically means run hourly - eg on the zeroth minute of every hour on every day etcsee: http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?crontab+5
Or if you meant the
-O -bit, that means send the output to stdout rather than saving it to a file.-Ois the option for output file, and if the output file is-, then use stdout instead and turn on 'quiet'. Basically in this case (ie no pipe or output redirection) it just means discard the output.see: http://www.cbi.pku.edu.cn/Doc/CS/wget/man.wget.html

-t 1
What's the -t 1 about? I can't find it in the man pages and elysia_cron suggests i drop it.

number of retries

Without that it will retry up to 20 times by default. You probably wouldn't want that on a busy server.
