Computer must be awake for scheduled shut down to occur in Mac OS X

In Mac OS X v10.3 and later, you can schedule a time for your Mac to automatically shut down by setting a time and interval in the Energy Saver pane in System Preferences. However, your computer must be awake at the time that it's scheduled to shut down, and remain awake for at least 10 minutes past the scheduled time, in order for it to shut down on its own. If your computer is sleeping at this time it will continue sleeping instead of shutting down.

NAME
Mac::AETE::Parser - parses Macintosh AETE and AEUT resources. SYNOPSIS
use Mac::AETE::Parser; use Mac::AETE::Format::Dictionary; $aete = Parser->new($aete_handle, $name); $formatter = Dictionary->new; $aete->set_format($formatter); $aete->read; $aete->write; DESCRIPTION
The Parser module serves as a base class for the Mac::AETE::App and Mac::AETE::Dialect modules. Methods new Example: ($aete_handle is a handle containing a valid AETE resource. $name is the name of the application.) use Mac::AETE::Parser; use Mac::AETE::Format::Dictionary; $aete = Parser->new($aete_handle, $name); read Reads the data contained in the AETE resource or handle. Example: $aete->read; set_format Sets the output formatter used during by the 'write' subroutine. Example: $formatter = Dictionary->new; $aete->set_format($formatter); copy Copies all suites from one Parser object into another. Example: $aete2 = Parser->new($aete_handle2, $another_name); $aete->copy($aete2); copies the suites from $aete2 into $aete. merge Merges suites from one Parser object into another. Only the suites that exist in both objects will be replaced. Example: $aete3 = Parser->new($aete_handle2, $another_name); $aete->merge($aete3); write Prints the contents of the AETE or AEUT resource using the current formatter. $aete->write; INHERITANCE
Parser does not inherit from any other modules. AUTHOR
