;;; Commentary:

;;; Based on Roland McGrath's hanoi-break.el (unreleased).
;;; The idea for keystroke recording was suggested by
;;; Mark Ashton <[e-mail]>

;;; Code:


(require 'timer)

;;;###autoload
(defvar type-break-interval (* 60 30)
  "*Number of seconds between typing breaks.")

;;;###autoload
(defvar type-break-delay-interval 60
  "*Number of seconds between queries to take a break, if put off.
The user will continue to be prompted at this interval until he or she
finally submits to taking a typing break.")

;; Assuming average typing speed is 45wpm, default this to the average
;; number of keystrokes one is likely to type in a break interval.
;; That way if the user goes through a furious burst of typing activity,
;; cause a typing break to be required sooner than originally scheduled.
;;;###autoload
(defvar type-break-keystroke-interval (* 45 (/ type-break-interval 60))
  "*Number of keystrokes to record before querying for a typing break.
If not a number, don't keep track of keystrokes.

Actually, this is not the number of keystrokes per se, but the number of
interactive commands (including self-inserting characters typed).
Compound key bindings like C-x C-f count as a single command even though
that consists of multiple keystrokes.")
  
;;;###autoload
(defvar type-break-demo-function-vector
  [type-break-life type-break-hanoi]
  "*Vector consisting of functions to run as demos during typing breaks.
When a typing break begins, one of these functions is selected randomly
to have emacs do something interesting.

Any function in this vector should start a demo which ceases as soon as a
key is pressed.")

;; The original motivation for this variable was that in emacs 19.25 (or
;; perhaps just in unreleased versions of emacs 19.26), the function
;; keyboard.c:safe_run_hooks wasn't reentrant, so that running yes-or-no-p
;; from a post-command-hook caused the inferior command loop to wipe out
;; the original value of the hook.  That was fixed, but it occured to me
;; that some people might prefer y-or-n-p.
;;;###autoload
(defvar type-break-query-function 'yes-or-no-p
  "*Function to use for making query for a typing break.
Usually this will be `yes-or-no-p' or `y-or-n-p'.")

;; The rest are internal variables.  Do not set them yourself.

;; Number of commands (roughly # of keystrokes) recorded since last break.
(defvar type-break-keystroke-count 0)

;; Non-nil if we need a typing break soon.
