And, even worse, came back from toilet (on 1.3.1 now), placed the MacBook back
on the table with closed lid, plugged in the power cord with closed lid (easier
to do because the cord comes from the right side of the table, so with open lid
I would have to search blind behind the lid), and when I opened the lid, the
MacBook was suspending.
I guess NoSleep was set to "Never sleep on Battery" but not to "Never sleep on
AC". So what happened when plugging in the power cord was "Lid is closed, I am
on AC power now, so sleep is allowed, so go to sleep". It is just confusing.
Please, simple "Never sleep on lid closed" option, please!

Never noticed your post before. I am with you on this one! I have suggested a
"three-behaviour" mode: on battery, on AC power, both (or classic). This would
be the solution for me too!

Am I missing something here? All you have to do if you NEVER want your computer
to sleep, regardless of AC/Battery is check the boxes next to BOTH AC Adapter
and Battery-- you are not limited to just one or the other. If you select both,
you will never have to worry about going into preferences or your toiling
clicks again, as your computer will NEVER sleep!

Thank you for your answer, Donald. But in deed you are missing something. I
don't want my computer to "never sleep". The computer should behave normal most
of the time. But in some special situations, I want it to stay awake, even when
I close the lid. Regardless of the power source. So when I want it to stay
awake, I click the symbol. But then I mustn't change the power source
(plug/unplug), or I will have to click the symbol again (what I regularly
forget, which means the computer DOES sleep, and that stops running
calculations etc. and takes a relatively long time). And to deactivate NoSleep
I also have to remember to click the symbol twice - in everey power state - or
I have to enter the preferences, or the computer will behave unexpected next
time in other power mode.

This separation of settings may also be the cause for issue 28.
There, I have described a real-life case that used to happen to me.
I agree with Robert: there should be a "both mode" option.

Ok, I have compiled a "NoSleep Classic" version based on 1.3.1 without separate
settings for AC and Battery.
This fixes all the problems for me with the latest versions.
If you want to try it, you can get it here:

Thank you, "volanin" guy (6, 7, 9), this is exactly what does the job for me!
Great news, "project member" (8), this would be even better as it unifies the
possibilites for everyone's personal taste and ensures ongoing support and
future updates without the need to compile it on one's one like"volanin".
I am very grateful for that nice little program!

Now "Zz" menu bar icon would toggle both modes at once.
