REQUEST - Anti-sleep function

[norrinr]

Request for a mode where the mouse would get moved a little bit in some direction and then back so that it would keep screensavers and sleep mode from coming on.

Ya this function could be added. But just play a long youtube video instead (the sleep mode wont come on then).....Currently going through some health issues. Cant actively contribute. If you want to contribute you are welcome

Sorry to hear that, @raghavk92 . Hope you get better soon.

@norrinr Which type of device are you controlling, and what is the reason you can't simply configure the screensaver and sleep mode to your liking on the device?

I've done some work on an app for the specific use case of controlling a Linux desktop mouse from a phone or tablet. If that is your scenario, then it would be trivial to add that to my little app, which is here.

Sorry for the months-late response! I am wanting to control a Windows 10 laptop. It's from work and locked down. I'm often working in another screen with the keyboard/mouse switched over, but I don't want the work system blanking the screen so I can monitor it as needed.
