What does current-idle-timer do?
It returns the time since when Emacs is idle, or nil if it's not idle.

;; probably you want to wrap this up in a macro and use a gensym

(defvar timer-foo-timer nil)
(defun timer-foo ()
(do-foo)
(when (itimerp timer-foo-timer) (delete-itimer itimer-foo-timer))
(setq timer-foo-timer (run-with-idle-timer secs nil #'timer-foo)))
I don't think this will work. Or it's not secs, but rather
(+ secs (current-time)), isn't it?
And with that I'm not sure it's really realiable, is it?
Thanks Stephen,
