Say I have a script that runs for 2 hours. Is there some way to reset the "idle time" so that after the first 30 minutes of execution, it gets reset back to zero again.

What "idle-time" are you talking about? "Not pressing a key on the keyboard and blanking the screen", or something else?

There's more than one "idle time"? Can you, or someone else, please enlighten me on this.
Idle-time may mean many things, in my mind, yes.Originally Posted by Overworked_PhD
For example:
Keyboard/mouse idle - nothing being input or mouse not moved for x amount of time.
CPU idle-time - there is no active process running.
Hard-disk idle-time - no disk activity.
Guess what? Everything that can be "busy" or "in use" can (and will) have an idle time.
So if you mean "screen saver" start after X time of "Keyboard/mouse idle time" (screen switches off or some such), then you need to change the setting for the screen saver. If it's some other idle-time, then you need to explain what you mean, and we can (probably) help you in the right direction.
