Actually, I was doing it differently
Authored by: lullabud on Apr 12, '07 09:38:01AM
Looks like I replied too quickly without fully opening my eyes this morning, I had done it a slightly different way, via the user crontab with:
## Display dimming experiment
30 7 * * *      /usr/bin/pmset force dim 60
0 9 * * *       /usr/bin/pmset force dim 1
30 17 * * *     /usr/bin/pmset force dim 60
0 0 * * *       /usr/bin/pmset force dim 1
I had done it this way so as to not override the system defaults that I set up in the Energy Saver pref pane.
