I was tired of my MBP waking up inside my bag. Your choice of names is great. I made a small modification to make them a tad shorter: "sleep light" and "sleep tight".

I then wrote a second script I call /usr/bin/slumber #!/bin/bash HM=`pmset -g | grep hibernatemode | sed -e 's/[^0123456789]*//g'` case "$1" in deeply) mode=1 ;; lightly) mode=3 ;; *) mode=$HM esac sudo pmset -a hibernatemode $mode osascript -e "tell application \"finder\"" -e "sleep" -e "end tell" sudo pmset -a hibernatemode $HM I also executed sudo chown root:admin /usr/bin/slumber and sudo chmod 04755 /usr/bin/slumber Than enables me to just execute slumber lightly if I want the mb to go to sleep or slumber deeply if I want the mb to hibernate immediately I hope these make things a bit more comfy. For those that like Icons ;) you could just create those scripts and then use Automator to create Actions that can be called via clicking on an Icon. But that is for another story. Greetings, Phil I wrote myself the following little script (just copy/paste into a text file)

#!/bin/bash

case “$1″ in
default)
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 3
;;
hibernate)
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 1
;;
sleep)
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 3
esac

mode=`pmset -g | grep hibernatemode | sed -e ‘s/[^0123456789]*//g’`
case “$mode” in
1)
echo “hibernate”
;;
3)
echo “sleep”
;;
*)
echo $mode
esac

I named it /usr/bin/lidmode
after saving i executed the following in Terminal

sudo chown root:admin /usr/bin/lidmode
sudo chmod 04755 /usr/bin/lidmode

now if I go into Terminal and execute
lidmode
it tells me which mode is currently on
and by doing
lidmode sleep
or lidmode hibernate
I can set the mode I want for the lid.

I then wrote a second script I call /usr/bin/slumber

#!/bin/bash

HM=`pmset -g | grep hibernatemode | sed -e ‘s/[^0123456789]*//g’`

case “$1″ in
deeply)
mode=1
;;
lightly)
mode=3
;;
*)
mode=$HM
esac

sudo pmset -a hibernatemode $mode
osascript -e “tell application \”finder\”" -e “sleep” -e “end tell”
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode $HM

I also executed
sudo chown root:admin /usr/bin/slumber
and
sudo chmod 04755 /usr/bin/slumber

Than enables me to just execute
slumber lightly
if I want the mb to go to sleep or
slumber deeply
if I want the mb to hibernate immediately

I hope these make things a bit more comfy.

I have been using Windows all these years and always used to Hibernate my laptop since it helps me to start my laptop quickly. Ever since I moved to a MBP, I was missing this feature, Thanks a lot.

My MBP has a bad tendency to wake up while in my backpack. This morning I could've fried an egg on it. This hibernation tip should do nicely.. Thanks! Thanks for the great tip.

Would you consider doing a step by step? For instance, what does "added two aliases" mean? How do I do that and where? Same with "sourced my bashrc" and "ran hibernateon". Just a little help for a noob. Hi Todd, not so new to MBP anymore but still learning bash stuff. Would you consider doing a step by step? For instance, what does “added two aliases” mean?
