Description
- Homepage: https://github.com/jD91mZM2/xidlehook
- Description: xidlehook is a general-purpose replacement for xautolock. It executes a command when the computer has been idle for a specified amount of time.
(Tried to create a package myself, but running into problems with cargo-style build process. Looks like some manual handling is required in this case.)
