Hi David, that would not work, because the display does need to
sleep, it would be working a long time, and at night.... but
needs to let people know that it is done. i have an alarm go off,
but people can know it has gone off much better from a distance if
suddenly the room is filled with light from the display waking up.
surely there is a method for this? wouldn't there be?
Jon.

no, not the machine sleep, just the display sleep... the
situation would be a process that runs longer than the current
display sleep time, which then pops up an alert, which no one
can see, since the display is asleep...

Hrm... In what situation would you want to do such a thing?
And what if the user has set security to require a password after
being in sleep?
Maybe prevent display sleep while your process is running?
