SleepWatcher Publisher's Description:
SleepWatcher is a command line tool (daemon) for Mac OS X that monitors sleep, wakeup and idleness of a Mac. It can be used to execute a Unix command when the Mac or the display of the Mac goes to sleep mode or wakes up or after a given time without user interaction. It also can send the Mac to sleep mode or retrieve the time since last user activity. A StartupItem, sample start and sleep scripts and the source code for sleepwatcher are included in the download. A little bit knowledge of the Unix command line is required to benefit from this software. SleepWatcher is published under the GNU General Public License.

What's new in this version:

* Schedule commands when the display of the Mac dims, powers off or powers on
* Schedule a command to be executed after a given time of user (mouse or keyboard) inactivity
* Option to retrieve the time elapsed since last user (mouse or keyboard) activity
* Option to inhibit sleeping of the Mac at all or depending on the exit code of a command
* SleepWatcher now is a proper Unix daemon
* Mac OS X 10.4 compatibility
