Before the computer goes to sleep it brings up a dialogue saying if nothing is done it will shut down in 10mins. Is there a way to remove this prompt? There's nothing in the pref pane. Thanks again Hi,

Nice tip.

Before the computer goes to sleep it brings up a dialogue saying if nothing is done it will shut down in 10mins.

Is there a way to remove this prompt? There’s nothing in the pref pane.

Thanks again

pmset has a ton of other possibilities, like timing boots, shutdown, sleep, I am about 95% sure the Energy Saver GUI is just a front end to the pmset command itself.

Even faster than using the GUI. Are the scheduled event added through pmset reflected in the energy saver prefpanel? Also, is it possible to schedule reccuring events through pmset? (I know I could try it out or check the man page, but I feel lazy + It's somewhat a good point of discussion) cheers. Nice. Even faster than using the GUI.
