About program
-------------
This program allows to set power state of a display device without need to
suspend a whole system or e.g. switch off a monitor.  For me the latter case
is not good because my monitor clicks when it is switched off and input
signal goes in.  That is the reason why I wrote this program.  It doesn't 
actually need to have anything related to VESA's DPMS (e.g. for laptops).
I just couldn't think of a more suitable name for the program.  You can
rename it if you like.

Requirements
------------
APM support installed (APM.SYS) and in Power object 
"APM BIOS and OS/2 support enabled" checked on.

How I use it
------------
I have created the following very simple batch file which I start using 
a program object on my desktop (with appropriate icon):

   @echo off
   dpms o
   pause
   dpms r

After double clicking on that object a monitor enters power-saving mode
and the script awaits a key press after which the monitor returns to normal 
operation.

A caveat:
  There must not run an application which would change a focus from that 
OS/2 window or an user could do that with keyboard or mouse. Then it would
be almost impossible to turn a display back on.

A workaround for this:
  With XWorkplace installed, you can create a resume program object and set
a hotkey for it.
