Comment (by jpenney@…):
I'm not sure when it was added (possibly Mountain Lion?), but there's a
command line tool for this scenario in OS X:
{{{
$ caffeinate -h
usage: caffeinate [-disu] [-t timeout] [command] [arguments]
}}}
If you pass it a command and arguments, it prevents the system from
sleeping until the command exits. I use this all the time with macports:
{{{
$ caffeinate sudo port upgrade outdated
}}}
