SleepWatcher
Authored by: escowles on Jan 28, '05 11:40:14PM

I'm not sure how to do things while the computer is asleep (though I think it can be done, it seems like Retrospect was able to wake the machine up to do scheduled backups...).

But the next best thing is SleepWatcher -- it runs a script when the machine goes to sleep. I used this for a while to make my account switch to the login screen when it went to sleep (to get around the bug that makes you have to type in your password twice when waking from sleep and the screensaver at the same time).
