I haven't tried it myself, but I guess on OSX you should be able to do these things with Automator.

The problem with both macosX and windows seven OS for an installation is that you never know when they will decide to shutdown for maintenance, if you're not expert.

Hi All,
I'm planning on using Pd for an installation in Melbourne in a couple of weeks. It's running fine, Pduino working, sensors working. I'm just wondering is there is a object (or series) of objects I can use to "power down" the patch, or even kill Pd, at a designated time. The installation will run into the night for a week, I'll be there to start it up each night but not to shut it down. I'm probably running on OSX, windows may be an option. A sleep or shutdown timer for the OS would be very useful too, seems odd these are not standard.
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot
-- Richie
