    My keyboard has spare buttons and I want to set one of them to put the computer to sleep. Is there a command somewhere (or file to activate) that would do this?

    All I can find is to make a keyboard shortcut to a specific executable (program). I don't know if there is an executable for "Sleep ".

    Only thing I can think of is to work in Power settings for how Sleep starts.

    Do you have any frequently used programs you can use with the spare key?
