NMS - 2.4b

NMS is a utility to force system sleep at a set idle time or on Screen Saver activation. It can follow Energy Savers settings in an "install and forget" way or operate completely independently. For me this solves the recurring problem of an invariably corrupt power manager preventing automatic sleep and the frequent dead batteries that result. Simple as this solution is it has worked great for me. My laptop ALWAYS sleeps. NMS now has provisions to allow for unattended wake events, like answering the modem or a scheduled wake-up, and per-application control over holding sleep, plus general improvements. If you can put your machine to sleep manually (short of being required to close the lid if it's a laptop) then NMS should be able to restore unattended sleeping on your machine.


What's new in this version:

This version is a Universal binary but is otherwise unchanged from v2.3 beta 3.
