SIC TIMER

        [SIC\]SIC TIMER [Time [HOURS|MINUTES|SECONDS]]

    All Gildas programs can be automatically closed (normal  exit)  after  a
    defined period of inactivity at the prompt level. This period is defined
    by the Sic timer. The timer is unset (i.e. no timer) by default.

    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.

    See also the command SIC\TIMER for advanced possibilities.
