Quote from the project page:
SleepWatcher 2.0.5 (now compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 â œLeopardâ ) is a command line tool (daemon) for Mac OS X that monitors sleep, wakeup and idleness of a Mac. It can be used to execute a Unix command when the Mac or the display of the Mac goes to sleep mode or wakes up or after a given time without user interaction. It also can send the Mac to sleep mode or retrieve the time since last user activity. A StartupItem, sample start and sleep scripts and the source code for sleepwatcher are included in the download. A little bit knowledge of the Unix command line is required to benefit from this software. You can also download a standalone source code archive for SleepWatcher 2.0.5. SleepWatcher 2.0.5 runs with Mac OS X 10.3 to 10.5. For Mac OS X 10.1 to 10.3, there is still SleepWatcher 1.0.1 available. SleepWatcher is published under the GNU General Public License. Awhile ago, it was a Pick of the Week at Mac OS X Hints.
