"Kicking" the screensaver/display timers



Hello,

I need an API call/approach for "kicking" the the
display-sleep/screensaver timers, as if the user had moved the mouse
or pressed a key. I need a program to be able to wake up the display
and/or stop the screensaver, without having the user interact with the
mouse or keyboard. (E.g., for an app used in a classroom situation to
broadcast a message to a Mac hanging on a wall that happened to be in
sleep mode).

Any pointers to a relevant API would be appreciated.


Shayne
