This package provides user idle time reporting in Tk under X Window. Confirmed to work on all major contemporary Linux systems to this date (2008).

Note that Tk since version 8.5 has built-in support for user idle time reporting via its tk inactive command, so consider using this library only if you must support Tk < 8.5.

Works like tk inactive -- to get the user's idle time, invoke:

 tkXwin::idletime

Other idle time tracking facilities:

  • tk inactive -- Tk 8.5 builtin.
  • tkinactive -- Suport for idle time reporting in older Tk (both X Window and modern NT-based Windows systems).
  • tclWinidle -- Support for idle time reporting in older Tk (all versions of Windows).
