Documentation seems to be lacking #32

My 17" macbook with Snow Leopard sometimes goes to sleep when removing the 
power adapter after a restart, even though NoSleep is active. I'm not sure if 
this is an issue or if I'm doing something wrong.

I assume the way that NoSleep works is that you can click preferences and then 
choose which type of power (battery or ac adapter) that you wish to use when 
closing the lid on your macbook, and then you click the ZZ icon in the menu bar 
once so it turns blue to "activate" it - but I didn't see this documentation 
anywhere on the website and so when I'm experiencing the aforementioned issue I 
can't easily tell if I'm doing something wrong or not.

A note to others: If you are experiencing this issue it seems that opening the 
NoSleep preferences and then unchecking and re-checking the option(s) you want, 
followed by clicking (to disable) and then re-enabling (blue icon) NoSleep 
seems to fix this problem sometimes. Other times I need to restart the computer 
again.
