Then I upgraded to 64-bit and it does not work any more. Does anyone have a good replacement or is my best bet to just go back to 32 bit? There are some new 10.6 event methods that I tried but they are more the opposite of an idle timer. It lets me handle all kinds of events but not "no event." I couldn't get that work well for me. If anyone has a recommendation, I would really appreciate it.
If it let you handle all kind of events, you can easily implement an idle timer. Create a timer, and each time you get an event, reset it and reschedule it. When the timer triggers, it means that you don't get any events for X minutes.
If I had to do something like that, I think I would create an NSApplication sublass which overrides -sendEvent: to reset the timer.
