On the mac many many years ago I coded up a primitive to tell the  
laptop not to nap, and
to prevent it from sleeping on you. Somewhat needed some some  
powerbooks when running
on batteries because napping or sleeping destroys the visual effects of  
Morphic animation.

This feature is also a preferences (at least on the mac), perhaps if  
someone really needs
it a feature for windows too?
