GTimer v1.1.6 Copyright (C) 1998 Craig Knudsen, cknudsen@cknudsen.com http://www.cknudsen.com/gtimer/ COMPILING: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- To build, just type "./configure; make". To install (typically in "/usr/local/bin"), type "make install". The "gtk-config" program should be in your path. The development environment for GTimer is Linux x86 2.0.36, libc6 (glibc), and GTK 1.1.13 and Linux 2.4.X with GTK 1.2.X. It should build without issue on any UN*X that has GTK. It should also build on Windows machines that have the Windows port of GTK. I have also compiled it on Mac OS X and it works great, but you do need to install X11 (from apple) and GTK. To check for new releases, try the "Tools->Check for New Version" item in the menu. To run: ./gtimer USING: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Command line options: -midnight N If you work past midnight, then use this to keep hours up until N count toward the previous day. Example: -midnight 400 All hours up until 4AM will be applied to previous day. -nosplash Do not show the splash screen on app startup. -start taskname Start timing the specified task -resume Start timing the same tasks that were on when the application last exited. -version Display the gtimer version -help Get help on usage TO DO: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Catch some signals (SIGINT, for example) so we can save date before exiting. GIMP does this, so it should be possible. - Show the GNU license on initial run of the app. - Online help. - Postscript output for printing rather than plain text. - GNOME integration. - Make a smaller main window (like gtcd) - Optionally store data in MySQL, Oracle, etc. instead of flat files - Add a configuration window to set things like print command, idle timeout, etc. - Export function (tab-delimited text file) - Ability to edit existing annotations HISTORY: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- See ChangeLog for development history.
