rtcidle Files

rtcidle is a Linux daemon that suspend the computer (with apm or acpi)
if no user activity has been detected for a given amount of time;
	- does not suspend if a program listed in /etc/rtcidle.conf
	  is running
	- if an at or cron job is to be executed in less
	  than 5 minutes, it does not sleep
	- it sleeps until 2 minutes before the next scheduled
	  at or cron job, or until 22:58 hours in the
	  future, whichever comes first

Installation
------------

Vixie cron or cronie sources are required in a local directory;
update the VCRDIR variable in Makefile.cron accordingly;

	make
	cp rtcidle.conf /etc

Copying rtcidle.before and rtcidle.after to /etc and
customizing them might be useful.

Queues
------

The directories at/ and cron/ contains code for finding the
next time at or cron have a scheduled job.

atqueue.c:
	time_t atnext(time_t now, int *running);
	next time for an at scheduled job; if running is not
	NULL, it will be stored whether an at job is
	currently running (according to the at queue, note 
	that is not reliable)

cronqueue.c:
	time_t cronnext(time_t now, char *prog_name);
	next time for a cron job; pass argv[0] as prog_name

programs.c:
	char **readList(char *filename);
		reads a list from a file (list of program names to check)
	int runningProgram(char **list);
		checks whether any of the program in the list is running

Child
-----

This directory contains 'waiting', a standalone program.
Run a program as 'waiting programname arg arg arg...' to
avoid suspending when the program is running.
