Switch off iMac screen in one click

Tue, 14 August 2007

We all wished that iMac had a switch that turns off the display while some application is running all night. Well, there is a nice little set of applications called Dockables, that does exactly this.

Dockables bring the system event access straight to your Dock. I currently have four Dockables icons in my Dock: close apps, hide apps, sleep, and sleep display. The last one is worth gold. All you do is click on it in Dock, and voila - your display goes to sleep while the computer is still running.

Other Dockables are: Shut Down, Start Default Screen Saver, Restart, Empty Trash, Eject Media, Log Out, Mute Sound, Sleep Display, and Screenshot.

Dockable is free and can be downloaded from CocoaApp website.

Stumble it!
