EyeTV's version 1.0.4 software introduces the ability to wake up or start your Mac (using OS X 10.2) to record TV shows.

Looks like it's a very simple utility. Just type:
sudo ./WakeIn 20 to wake in 20 seconds, for example. I just tried this and it works - put the computer to sleep, and it pops awake 20 seconds after the command was issued. It seems to document which system calls it makes, too; when I run it without sudo, I get this:

FAR OUT!!!

Me and nriley are going to add this feature to Pester. Should be pretty simple.

What is pester?

I think Wakein references Standart Time.
What type of computer?
On my B/W 400 I get this error:
huh?
who turns off their computer?
Still works with 1.5!
Cool! I just tried this with the 1.5 updater and it's still there and working. Should be fun! |
