man idleout will tell you about a handy utility to do this. It will apply to all users though.

Copy and modify the idleout script (those are vi line numbers on the left, so don't type them in):
[tt] 182 pids=`awk ' (new) $1 != "theuser" { next }
183 $6 == "." { next } 184 $6 == "old" { print $7 ; next } \[/tt]
