What is MoccaFaux?

MoccaFaux can be used to prevent the activation of screen savers and power-saving modes when certain conditions are met. It was inspired by caffeine, but is much more flexible.

In fact, MoccaFaux is a scheduler that executes commands (called watches), looks at their exit codes and then decides whether to execute another set of commands (called tasks):

  1. execute all watches and record their exit codes

  2. assign exit code of each watch to one or more tasks (such as :let-there-be-light or :i-cant-get-no-sleep)

  3. update state of each task:

:active if any of the assigned watches returned a non-zero exit code

:idle in any other case

  1. in case the state of a task differs from its previous state, execute a command depending on its new state

  2. wait, rinse and repeat the above

All watches, tasks and commands as well as their number can be defined by the user.
