[K12OSN] xset question

[Huck]

did you 'man xset'...

xset  [-display display] [s blank/noblank] [[+-]dpms]

-dpms   The -dpms option disables DPMS (Energy Star) features.

so could you not with the aid of a script...(I'm not a script writer but 
I'm okay at pseudo-code =)


foreach display
   xset display -dpms s noblank

or something sorta like that?

on my network it'd be something like:

     xset ws215.ltsp:0.0 -dpms s noblank
