increase session idle timeout

Hi
I want to increase the idle session time for my wiki users.
In my site, you must be logged in to edit pages and usually we're working in
large documents so when you want to save changes (after several minutes) you
got a "Please re login" due to your session has expired and you realise that
it was a waste of time :(
How I can increase this time, is there a Localsetting.php variable for this?

Thanks

I don't know the solution to your problem, but I wanted to comment quickly..

When I log in I have it remember my login.. so this never happens.

Also, if this were to happen to me.. I could simply log in, and then
surf back in history to my edit.. and all my editing would still be
there. This could either be firefox, or it could be the session saver
extension I use. Probably firefox.
