Like the AppleScript, it works fine so long as the screen saver time limit hasn't been reached, now to test if it has.I realize that I probably won't be able to wake the screen from sleep, but I am tantalizingly close to being able to turn off the screen saver. Has anyone else managed to do this? If it can't be done, I guess I can always write myself a fake screen saver in Revolution, but I would rather let the system do all the work :-)
okay, I am being radical, but can't you kill the process using shell function?
you could fetch the process using:
ps -aux | grep "ScreenSaverEngine"
first word will be process ID (pid)
then to a:
kill --KILL <pid>
For anyone who is interested, the script is slightly different to the one Andre suggested:
get shell("ps -auxc | grep " & quote & "ScreenSaverE" & quote)
if it is empty then exit to top
put word 2 of it into pID
get shell ("kill " & pID)
Many thanks, Sarah
