Description-en: prevent the desktop becoming idle in full-screen mode
Caffeine prevents the desktop from becoming idle when an application
is running full-screen. A desktop indicator ‘caffeine-indicator’
supplies a manual toggle, and the command ‘caffeinate’ can be used
to prevent idleness for the duration of any command.
