Is there any way of putting a shortcut to the energy saver system preference in the dock?

The reason being, I often leave my imac on overnight to allow it to do encoding and such-like and I therefore regularly change the setting so that the screen switches off after 1 minute. And when I am using it normally i want it to switch off after an hour, so it doesn't keep switching off everytime I look away to do something else.

Thank you!

Tom
 
There is.

1. Go to: /System/Library/PreferancePanes
2. Drag EnergySaver.prefpane to the dock.

When you open it, it will open System Preferences>EnergySaver.
