PowerSaver Tweak is a utility for newer PowerBook models and PCI-based Power Macintoshes that gives you more control over the power conservation settings than Apple's PowerBook/Energy Saver control panel.

PowerSaver Tweak lets you define power conservation settings that are always in effect.

However, PowerSaver Tweak also lets you define settings for specific applications.

Why is this important? I found that in day-to-day use, having a single set of settings was inflexible - I was always bringing up the PowerBook control panel to tweak the values for whatever application I happened to be using. For example, I'd bring it up to increase the hard drive spindown time for Word, or turning off CPU cycling for games.

PowerSaver Tweak is my solution to this - you have a default set for most applications, but you can set up your favorite settings for Word or whatever applications you tend to use.

PowerSaver Tweak is compatible with the:
* PowerBook 500 series.
* PowerBook 1400 series.
* PowerBook 3400 series.
* PowerBook 5300 series.
* PCI-based Power Macintoshes (7200, 7500, 8500, G3, G4, etc.).
* PCI-based Performas (6360, 6400, etc.).
* PowerBook 190/190c.
* the Duo 2300c.

What's New:
Renamed to PowerSaver Tweak to better reflect its abilities.
Updated manual with compatibility information.
Properly identifies Macintosh model.
Added core AppleEvent support.
Added code to gracefully exit PPC application on 68K Mac.
