How to prevent screen lock
-
Folks,
I have a script that I wrote to keep track of a pool game my buddies and I play. It uses the ui module to build a simple GUI with a list of players and keeps track of the score by touches on the names of the players. Sometimes a player's turn in this game can last a while and the screen locks. Is there any way to temporarily disable the phone's screen lock function?
Thanks...

@tachijuan. I am new, but I think you can use:
console.set_idle_timer_disabled(flag)
Disable or enable the idle timer (which puts the device to sleep after a certain period of inactivity). -

excellent. Thanks everyone. Was looking for screen lock and not sleep. And was looking through the UI module and not the console module. This works perfectly.
