I wish the lion icon would change when the app is preventing the computer from sleeping so you could have an easy visual confirmation. I also wish there was a faster way to prevent the computer from sleeping, like command+clicking on the icon instead of going through the drop down menu.

Last request: An AppleScript dictionary so apps like Alfred could send it commands to prevent the computer from sleeping or not.

The app name…Wimoweh…as sung (albeit as Awimoweh) in the song that goes “In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the LION sleeps tonight…”

Only apps that are currently running show up in the list, so you need to launch an app to have it become visible there.

How do you add Apps to the pre-populated lists? There is no support on the Dev web site.

I like this app, but what’s up with the lion icon? I’d design a new one if it meant it was changed to something simpler!

Another great feature would be time limits, like “Don’t let Safari sleep for 2 hours”
