Not quite on-topic but I can't think where else to ask! I want to put together a daemon to track idletime, the sort of thing that tells you to get up and stretch every half hour of worktime.
Trouble is, there's no way I can figure out to track "Last keypress in any virtual terminal" (I don't and can't use X) and finger is reporting invalid idletimes :(. I'm using zsh for shell and if I run a shellscript that calls other programs, the idletime for that VT gets reset every time the secondary program is activated. It also seems to like to report Mutt as un-idle even when it is. Any ideas? bekj -- : --Hacker-Neophile-Eclectic-Geek-Grrl-Gay-Disabled-Boychick-- : [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.tertius.net.au/~gossamer/ : Linux hackers are funny people: They count the time in : patchlevels. -- Gerd Knorr
