I have an application that uses NSTimers to schedule frequent actions on behalf of the user. its not something that you would put into a cron, cause the timers are reset when the users take actions etc etc etc.

However, I've been having some issues lately with writing a new version of the application. when I put my mac to sleep, and then wake it up, the NStimers aren't firing.
Does anyone know how to get the application to detect that the computer has awoken, and run a method or something like that?

NSWorkspace fires NSWorkspaceDidWakeNotification and NSWorkspaceWillSleepNotification notifications. There are no corresponding "WillWake" or "DidSleep" notifications, for what I hope are pretty obviously reasons. :-)
