Xenix for the Tandy 6000 series, which is a composite product of
Microsoft, Tandy, and SCO, has a program called /usr/lib/idle, designed to
be run by cron (reading settings in /etc/default/idle) to "log idle users off".

This program was written by Tandy, and I doubt if they'll release source.
Try putting a note in comp.sys.tandy, it is monitored by some of the
techies at Tandy headquarters.
