Version 1.1 does not work with Snow Leopard when Rosetta is installed. Just activate 32 bit bit mode and activate Rosetta. Then it works again.

Caffeine is just great, this lets me switch behaviour so neatly and easily. I hope that newer versions will fix problems that haivng caffeine on doesn't always stop the computer from going to sleep with Snow Leopard

The latest version works with Snow Leopard (just submitted).

doesn't work on snow leopard, sigh!

I love caffeine, but I really wish it were just a keyboard shortcut or perhaps a widget. I hate adding yet another icon to my menubar.

Use it on the big Mac and the little mac. LOVE IT!!!!!

All whilst sipping on 100% Arabica expresso.

Now it has an option to set a default timeout period. Yay! (If only my real caffeine had this option.)

Hi, and for those of you wanting to automate some just add this in your script editor, and save it as an application with "stay open" checked:

on idle {}
my caffeineCheck()
return 5 -- execute every 5 sec.
end idle

on caffeineCheck()
if application "QuickTime Player" is running then
tell application "Caffeine"
turn on
end tell
else
tell application "Caffeine"
turn off
end tell
end if
end caffeineCheck

I love this app, but like some of the other commenters, I really didn't much care for its icon. Anyone looking for a change, I've found two coffee-cup icons that work really well as a replacement, and look a lot better than Caffeine's icon.

I emailed the developer. The person who responded was extremely helpful. For anyone else trying to learn how to do it, enter the following script into the Script Editor app (which should already be installed in Mac OS X):

tell application "Caffeine"
if active then
turn off
else
turn on
end if
end tell
