Ok so as you may or may not know, G4FanControl lets you override the sensors in the laptop. Only problem is it doesn’t retain the settings after reboot. (Even though it says it does.) So I set out to write a script to change the settings every time I restarted. I used UI Browser and I couldn’t for the life of me get it to let me do backround scripting. (Noted as comments in the script.) So if you have any optimizations to pull this script away from messy GUI scripting, I would be greatly appreciative.
