There are a lot of examples of how to do that with AppleScript. Here’s one.

You could put a script like that in `~/Library/Scripts` and ensure that you 
have the “Scripts (User)” source enabled in the catalog. Most of the scripts I 
found seem to use the menu bar item rather than the button in System 
Preferences, so you might have to enable that too.
