I believe there is a VoiceOver command to do this, but I don't have the command on hand. If I find the command, I'll email yawl back.

Hi, James, Just continue with Screen Brightness and Screen Curtain together. I should write a CLI script for this.

I know that you can turn the screen brightness right down and use the Screen Curtain which effectively does this which was what I used to do. But I was wondering if there was a solution via the Command Line. In Linux, this can be achieved by something like dpms off. This keeps the screen off until you either use dpms on our restart the pc. I have tried turning off my laptop screen in Windows, and JFW doesn't like it too much. As VO is built directly into the system i assume it doesn't use video intercept but instead gets its access info direct from the Mac OS X kernel? Thanks for any help that you can provide Thank you for taking the time to read this.
