Re: Creating a keystroke to put the monitor only to sleep.

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.

Since Apple doesn't provide any public API for putting monitors to sleep or offers any way to configure the keyboard shortcut for this functionality, either, I'm afraid I can't help you in this case. Sorry.

Well, the authors of SleepDisplay and DisplaySleepr apps managed to do that somehow. So it's doable.

Does anyone have the source code for this app, or know how it can be achieved? I'm looking for a way to use this in a keystroke too - but I'm having a hard time finding a way to do it - writing cocoa or objective-c is no problem for me, I just need to find the APIs

I think the best way to do that is to ask the author that question. http://www.malcolmhall.com/products/sleepdisplay/
