Wake from Dim or Black screensaver? - herg - 2009-10-18

I'm working on updating the CallerID script by Rich-Hard for using in current Linux builds.

I want to add an option to wake from Dim or Black screensavers so that the displayed number can be seen. I haven't been able to find anything in the references that looks useful. Any ideas?

Edit:

I found that using the HTTP API and SendKey(0xF000) seems to work well. It would be nice to be able to query if the screensaver is running before using SendKey, but I haven't found any side effects yet.
