wtime

Summary

Wtime is a command-line utility for tracking time spent working on arbitrary tasks. All the time data is saved in files residing in the .wtimed directory in the users home directory.

All reported times are in seconds.

Download

The latest version of wtime is 0.2. You can get it from here as a gzipped tar archive. All versions are available from the sourceforge files section

Installation

First look into the file 'config.mk', and alter it to fit you system / needs. Then just do: 
$ make clean
$ make
$ make install (you'll probably have to be root for this step)

Usage

wtime [ -t task ] [ <action> ]

-t  task
    Specify the name of the task. It has to be  a  valid  file-
    name.  Only the first 32 characters are taken into account.
    The default value is "default".

action is one of the following:

-h  Display help.

-a  Start counting.

-s  Stop counting.

-c  Display current elapsed time in seconds.

-r  [ start [ end ]]
    Display time spent on the task during the  specified
    period.  The  parametres start and end represent the
    begginning and end of the reporting  period  respec-
    tively.  The  format  of start and end is '%d-%m-%Y'
    (see strptime (1)).  The default values are the cur-
    rent  time for end and the begginning of the current
    month for the start parameter.
