Subject: eyes-saver in scsh

Hi,

This is my first script in scsh. It is an eyes-saver which means if you
are continuely working in front of a computer screen for longer than a
specified time period, then a GTK+ 2 dialog will be pop-up and tell you
that you must rest your eyes now, and after a very short time, when the
dialog closes, the xscreensaver will be started.

Any comments and suggestions are welcome! And I must thank the list for
helping me sort out my questions on processes and threads which was
posted earlier to this list. Thanks!

The script depends on zenity and xscreensaver to work correctly. Both
packages are available in Debian sid under the written names.
