I agree with your interpretation - it fits the script as written, but
unfortunately the system behaviour contradicts it. I'm going to experiment
some more, maybe wade through the apmd source, to see if it checks the
return status of the script, see what I can come up with. Ideally,
Fn-F4 should come through as a user suspend, but that's a separate issue.
