+#!/bin/bash
+# lightsOn.sh
+
+# Copyright (c) 2013 iye.cba at gmail com
+# url: https://github.com/iye/lightsOn
+# This script is licensed under GNU GPL version 2.0 or above
+
+# Description: Bash script that prevents the screensaver and display power
+# management (DPMS) to be activated when you are watching Flash Videos
+# fullscreen on Firefox and Chromium.
+# Can detect mplayer, minitube, and VLC when they are fullscreen too.
+# Also, screensaver can be prevented when certain specified programs are running.
+# lightsOn.sh needs xscreensaver or kscreensaver to work.
+
+
+# HOW TO USE: Start the script with the number of seconds you want the checks
+# for fullscreen to be done. Example:
+# "./lightsOn.sh 120 &" will Check every 120 seconds if Mplayer, Minitube
+# VLC, Firefox or Chromium are fullscreen and delay screensaver and Power Management if so.
+# You want the number of seconds to be ~10 seconds less than the time it takes
+# your screensaver or Power Management to activate.
+# If you don't pass an argument, the checks are done every 50 seconds.
+#
+# An optional array variable exists here to add the names of programs that will delay the screensaver if they're running.
+# This can be useful if you want to maintain a view of the program from a distance, like a music playlist for DJing,
+# or if the screensaver eats up CPU that chops into any background processes you have running,
+# such as realtime music programs like Ardour in MIDI keyboard mode.
+# If you use this feature, make sure you use the name of the binary of the program (which may exist, for instance, in /usr/bin).
+
+
+# Modify these variables if you want this script to detect if Mplayer,
+# VLC, Minitube, or Firefox or Chromium Flash Video are Fullscreen and disable
+# xscreensaver/kscreensaver and PowerManagement.
