Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hey all... I've got qcread installed on my system, and ncftpput going, so I've constructed the basics of a quickcam auto-uploader script. However, for obvious reasons, I'd like to disable it if the console screen saver is running, or to the same effect, if there's been no activity at the keyboard for two minutes or so. Can anyone think of a way to do this without hacking the screen saver source heavily? (be it via ps, or finger, or whatever). Any help is MUCHO appreciated. -Dan Mahoney -- "Little tramp sits in her room all day, sewing dolls! Children misbehaving in the basement, and one in the walls, doing his business God knows where!
