I'm not looking to overclock my device but I'm just looking for an app that can:
- Set the cpu speed: low (208Mhz), normal (520Mhz), high (624Mhz), or auto. Of course, the actually speeds will vary for different devices. The idea is switch between the standard speeds for each cpu type and not force it to run at a certain speed... just like the cpu speed settings in the power applet.

- Can run with commandline parameters and with no or minimal interface.
So I can run it as: utilname /speed low
This is so I can use the util in scripts.

I want this program because I want to use it with sk-tools' skschema app to:

- create a application shortcut that can set the cpu speed before launching an application... multi action scripts can be done using skschema. For example, if I'm running a video player that supports hardware acceleration, I would want my cpu to be set to low to conserve battery power.

- to have skschema see what is the foreground application and change the cpu speed to match my needs. Skschema can sense application activity such as what is in the foreground and then trigger a script to run. For example, if I switch to a text program, I would want the cpu to be set low. If I switch back to a game, I would want the cpu to be set high.

- it would be nice to have direct shortcuts to set the cpu speed instead of going into the power applet.

I know that if I leave the device on auto, it will change speed based on cpu load, but I rather have more control for the sake of battery life.

I've talked to sk-tools about adding this feature to skschema and they suggested that I look for a separate tool for this that can be incorporated into skschema's scripts.

Any such app out there?
Thanks!
