WMWORK(1) Version 0.2.5 WMWORK(1)
NAME
wmwork - keep track of time worked on projects
SYNOPSIS
wmwork [options]
DESCRIPTION
wmwork provides a monitor on a 64x64 mini window that helps you keeping track of your time. The idea is based on the program Worklog writ-
ten by Truxton King Fulton II. In contrast to Worklog wmwork is a graphical application designed to work with the WindowMaker dock, but
will work with other window managers as well.
OPTIONS
-d, --days
displays time in ddd.hh:mm instead of hhh:mm:ss. Note that if one timer is at least 1000 hours large this will be the case anyway.
-f, --force
overwrite stale lock files. Use this if wmwork says that it's already running but it isn't.
-h, --help
display a command line summary.
-v, --version
display the version number.
--display=id
set the display to use, e.g. --display=:0.0.
--geometry=pos
set the position of the dock app, e.g. --geometry=+10+10. Note that the size (64x64) is hard-coded and cannot be changed.
USAGE
When wmwork is started, the uppermost line shows the accumulated time spent on the project, identified by a three letter code in the third
line. The second line shows the current time spent on the project and is initially zero.
The button V starts the timer, the button || pauses it. The button X stops the timer, saving the accumulated time in ~/.wmwork/worklog,
adding the current session time to ~/.wmwork/worklog.XYZ and resetting the latter.
The buttons < and > switch between the projects found in the file ~/.wmwork/worklog. This can be done only if the timer is neither running
nor paused.
FILES
~/.wmwork/worklog
contains the projects configuration and log summaries.
Each line has the form identifier:timestamp[:comment]. Empty lines and lines beginning with a # are ignored. Only the first three charac-
ters of the (case-insensitive) identifier are relevant. When wmwork is overwriting ~/.wmwork/worklog it cuts the identifiers down that way.
~/.wmwork/???
contains human readable timestamps for the project XYZ, where XYZ is the truncated identifier from ~/.wmwork/worklog.
Having multiple entries of the same identifier in ~/.wmwork/worklog is possible. They are counted independently, but will share the same
project file.
