Suspend Energy Saver Suspended

Suspended!

Since I posted this script application some people have pointed out an application called Caffeine that does the same thing but better. In view of this (and due to the fact that I now use Caffeine instead of my own script!) this app will no longer be developed.

However, it will still be available to download if you want it, and may be useful to anyone who wants to reuse any of the code.
