Jiggler ReviewGreat app - Version: 1.3, 4/17/2008 02:32AM PST

Been using it for years and it just keep getting better with updates. Never had it cause trouble with other apps while it's running and has alway run as expected. Can't say that about many apps.

Pretty cheeky, given it's a free app.

Anyways, I'd like a sub-checkbox under the "application whose name contains" checkbox, "Only Jiggle when the app is active". I use Jiggler with my audio software, and while I don't want the screensaver to kick in while it's active, it'd be cool to switch it to the background to let Screensaver and/or Sleep to run normally.
