Gentlemen, at the gala festival I have left emacs running and
forgotten on a terminal that I can't even remember what room is in.
Well, if emacs had a timeout setting, like bash's TMOUT, then I
wouldn't need to worry that some perpetrator could molest my files.
TMOUT If set to a value greater than zero, the value is
interpreted as the number of seconds to wait for
input after issuing the primary prompt. Bash ter-
minates after waiting for that number of seconds if
input does not arrive.
- bash TMOUT for emacs,
