Hello there,
I think the closest thing to what you are looking for is an NSTimer.
You can create an NSTimer and ask it to send a specific message to a
specific object.
You set a timer to fire every so often (perhaps every tenth of a
second, or such) and call your idle-method... that should probably do
what you want.
Look at the 'Timers' section under 'Events and Other Input'
Hope that helps,
Jay

Hi
I just searched for 1.5 hour in the docs, but didn't find what I was
looking for. I want NSApp to call a special function when the app is
idle. I searched for a Notification name for the event, but didn't
found one. Any help will be appreciated. If there isn't such a
function, is it possible to implement my own event processing loop like
[NSApp run], so I can use the idle time?
