I have an Applescript which works fine as long as Energy Saver has not
put my monitor to sleep. This is not the same as putting the computer
to sleep as then of course the script will not run. And it also runs fine if the
screen saver is running.
Is there any way to control the Energy Saver system from Applescript?
Is there some way to wake up the monitor either by script or by some
program which I can set to come on at a specified time?
I really don't want to have the monitor on all the time, but I also
would like to have my applications run when I am not there.
The script is fairly simple in that it just starts three programs which
then access the internet. I could leave the programs running, but since
one of them tries to access the internet every hour and I can't find out
how to set it to only do the access when I tell it to, I would prefer not to
have it running all night. Besides, I'm old-fashioned and think that I
ought to be able to run my computer the way I want to, and not as
someone else thinks I should. :)
