Is this the script you tried?:

while : 
  do echo -n `date '+%H:%M:%S '` 
  pmset -g assertions | awk '/hidd/{getline; print substr($0, 1, index($0, $7) - 2)}' 
  sleep 10 
done 

Here it is one a single line:

while :; do echo -n `date '+%H:%M:%S '`; pmset -g assertions | awk
'/hidd/{getline; print substr($0, 1, index($0, $7) - 2)}'; sleep 10; done

And here's a sample of the expected output:

# while : 
#   do echo -n `date '+%H:%M:%S '` 
#   pmset -g assertions | awk '/hidd/{getline; print substr($0, 1,
#   index($0, $7) - 2)}' 
#   sleep 10 
# done 
12:48:31	Timeout will fire in 584 secs
12:48:41	Timeout will fire in 574 secs
12:48:51	Timeout will fire in 564 secs

Either you copied and pasted it incorrectly or you are using a shell
that is not the standard /bin/bash shell. What shell are you using?

That's not useful; you need to know what it says when the problem occurs.

None of it is relevant.
