About
Note: This utility works only on those Macintosh models that can wake themselves up (PowerBook 100 & 150, PowerBook 500 and 5300 series, PowerBook Duos, and PCI-based Power Macintoshes). Some PowerBooks have the ability to wake themselves up. This is very convenient, for automatically sending faxes or email in the middle of the night. However, the "PowerBook" or "Energy Saver" Control Panel provided by Apple only allows you to enter a single wakeup time. This prevents you from scheduling multiple wake-up sessions. For example, if you wanted to send your faxes at 1:00am, and then download some files at 2:00am, you'd have to stay up until 1:00am, and reset the wakeup timer manually. Insomniac allows you to program up to fifty wakeup "events" (registered copies only). Therefore, you can have your PowerBook wake up several times during the night, or even program it to wake up once a night for weeks on end. Changes in version 1.1.1: - Updated manual with compatibility information. - Properly identifies Macintosh model. - Added core AppleEvent support. - Added code to gracefully exit PPC application on 68K Mac.
