Subject: PowerSaver Tweak 1.1.1 for PowerBooks and Power Macs

NOTE: PowerSaver Tweak was formerly known as PowerBook Tweak. I have
renamed it to better reflect its ability to run on desktop Power
Macintoshes in addition to PowerBooks.

PowerSaver Tweak is a utility for Macintoshes that gives you more control
over the power conservation settings than Apple's standard control panels.
It lets you configure the conservation settings for specific applications,
allowing you to tailor power conservation to best meet your usage needs.

It is compatible with PowerBook 500 and 5300 series, as well as PCI-based
Power Macintoshes and Performas.

You can configure the screen dimming, drive spindown, system sleep, and CPU
cycling for up to fifty applications (unregistered copies allow four). For
example, you can prevent your PowerBook from cycling while you are playing
a particular game. Or use PowerSaver Tweak so that your hard drive never
spins down while using Word.

Version 1.1.1 has these changes:

- Renamed to "PowerSaver Tweak" to better reflect it's abilities.
- Added support for core AppleEvent suite.
- Added code to gracefully exit PPC application on 68K Mac.
