Build this app with Fable as I felt Amphetamine had way too many options, and the actual option I wanted still required me to install another application to run the sudo command pmset disablesleep.

Given that sudo requirement its not able to be published into the App Store, hence the submission here.

Probably can make it smaller but in its current form works easy enough.

Keep in mind it sets the conf flag, so when uninstalled when set the pmset disablesleep is still the same as you left it.
