SleepMonitors

Simple app to put all your monitors to sleep when executed.

Helpful if you're one of those people that needs to leave their PC running but doesn't want to wait for their screens to auto-sleep or have to physically turn them off everytime.

Usage:

Simply launch the executable and your monitors should go to sleep.

A small message will display on screen counting down to when it will do so (and may be cancelled by pressing ESC).
This message can be hidden with a -s or silent launch command like so: SleepMonitors.exe -s

You may also set the delay before the app puts your monitors to sleep using -sleepDelaySeconds 5 as an example to wait 5 seconds. This helps avoid mouse movements after clicking from potentially waking the sleep. (This timer will happen whether in silent mode or not.)

Full Example:

SleepMonitors.exe -silent -sleepDelaySeconds 8

(Put the monitors to sleep in 8 seconds, without showing a message on screen)
