Thanks much.

(defun rcd-check-if-idle (&optional seconds)
  "Verify if Emacs is idle for number of SECONDS.

If SECONDS is not provided, default is 3 seconds."
       (cond ((and (current-idle-time) 
       	      (>= (cadr (current-idle-time)) (or seconds 3)) t))
	  (t nil)))

I am using now this function to check if user is idle while running it
`run-with-timer`.
