## About | ||
I like to keep my computer on when going to sleep. What can I say, I like to sleep watching something. | ||
But I don't like to keep my computer on sleep all night; that is, if it goes to sleep automatically. | ||
|
||
I've always written bat scripts to turn off my PC after certain amount of time. | ||
But I always lose them. This time I wanted to write all using autohotkey. | ||
I know, I know.. There are dozens of scripts I can choose from after a simple google search but hey ! My AHK "knowledge" required a repeat anyway. | ||
|
||
And here we go, we have this snippet of a script. | ||
|
||
## Features | ||
- It can turn **off your monitor**. Take your computer to **Sleep**, **Hibernation** or **Shutdown** states. | ||
- It has a timer with *seperate hour, minute and second inputs.* | ||
- It has the countdown on a small window, with a huge cancel button on it. | ||
- 10 seconds before set action, it maximizes the countdown window to give *user* an **action movie slam abort** chance. | ||
- If computer goes to sleep before zz Cat puts it to sleep, kitty will cancel the countdown and shut itself off silently. | ||
- You can use it with only keyboard inputs. | ||
- It kinda looks cute. | ||
|
||
## Usage | ||
1. Select what you want to happen from first window. | ||
2. Enter values for countdown. (Enter key confirms it) | ||
3. Watch the countdown pointlessly, or **GO TO BED**. (ESC aborts it) | ||
|

## FAQ | ||
* No I don't see cute-ish design as a thread to my masculinity. | ||
* I am a dog person but I love cats immensely too. "Sleepy Cat" is a nickname for me, but it was taken already. | ||
* Yes I like ZZ Top. |
