Triggering Windows notifications with LUA?

[mercster]

Hi there,

I am interested in an addon that will notify me when I am almost going to be logged out due to idle. There is an Idle Notification plugin, but it sends an in-game notification. If I am not looking at the screen or it is unfocused, it does me no good.

The popular 3rd party Oldschool Runescape client 'RuneLite' has exactly this feature: after 4minutes30seconds of inactivity, a notification is sent through Windows (along with accompanying sound), alerting the player. I realize we're dealing with two totally different beasts here, but that's sort of what I would be going for.

Another option is to play a sound, but if my ESO window is unfocused, sounds do not play. I will check to see if there is a toggle for this...

Thanks.
