SIC TIMER
[SIC\]SIC TIMER [Time [HOURS|MINUTES|SECONDS]]
All Gildas programs are automatically closed (normal exit) after a de-
fined period of inactivity at the prompt level. This period is defined
by the Sic timer.
With a Time argument, set the timer to the input value. Unit is a key-
word which can be Hours, Minutes, or Seconds (default Hours). A null or
negative value disables the timer.
Without argument, display the current value of the timer.
The timer can be customized in a Sic logical named SIC_TIMER (integer
value, in hour unit). This value is evaluated once at startup from one
of the Sic logical dictionaries. Later changes are ignored. Default is 3
hours.
