here an example how to switch the computer off/to sleep from pd
the sleep script works nicely, but the logoff one fails - "shut
down" and "sleep" are valid for Finder in an Applescript, but "log
out" isn't.
first i think you need to activate UI-Scripting. http://www.apple.com/applescript/uiscripting/01.html
you'll have in your “System events” applescript library a “power
suite” folder with
log out
restart
shut down
sleep
then also you need to make a .app out of the script i've sent in the
last mail by saving it in the Scripteditor
Another problem I have is that with [shell] I get an error dialogue
saying "pd quit unexpectedly" when I use the examples in shell- help.pd - I guess it refers to the process triggered by [shell]
ending, since pd continues on happily.When I try your patch the system sleeps before pd can quit, it
quits just after the system wakes up.Adding "delay 5" to the start of the applescript doesn't help - it
just adds a delay after wake up before pd quits, followed by the
error dialogue.Trying to split off the shell process by;
[& /Users/simon/sleep.app( | [ggee/shell]
does not work, Console says the & isn't recognised (it's ok in
Terminal) - pd quits, but sleep.app isn't run.
i think you should do
[open /Users/simon/sleep.app( | [shell]
