I'm getting further into things. I'm not sure if the ps -ax bit needs = 1 or = 0. I think it may be 1 when run from the terminal but 0 when part of a shell script.
You can't use caffeinate on a Mac application, only on a Unix command. So the caffeinate line needs to be caffeinate -i open -W path to Waiter.app I have seen suggested that it should be open -W -a but I don't know why this should be. It may not apply in this case. The -W is important, as caffeinate only stops sleep as long as open is running, and without the -W this just opens the application and is then finished, while with -W open remains active until the application is quit. One can perhaps tidy up the script with a parameter to put Waiter into the background (I think it is -g) plus a line (using osascript -e to call an Applescript) to put Terminal into the background. It looks to me as though Really Prevent Standby itself would work using a suitable shell script along those lines to prevent standby rather than the default option. I'll be happy to test if Gordon or anyone want to work it out further, or I might find the time to try it myself, now that I know how to use caffeinate. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ danco's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=210 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95980 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
