You missed the point. The point was made by someone else that BBEdit could check to see not that the program was open, but whether or not someone was actually "using" it, whatever than means.

But it's already doing that in order to implement the nag box in the first place! How do you think it finds the other licenses on the network?

I, for one, do NOT want BBEdit checking every XX seconds to see if I'm using the program or not. I cherish my clock cycles, and don't want them going to such a silly purpose.

So if a copy of BBEdit is idle, don't include it in the nag logic.

1) How long do you set the idle parameter for-a second, a minute, five minutes?

2) What about input to the app. which doesn't come from keyboard or
mouse input, as via AppleScript/OSAX/Automator actions?

30 seconds, plus or minus. Long enough to reliably get collisions for real misuse, short enough not to be a pain in the butt.

WRT AS etc, I don't care. Count 'em, I suppose.
