timesheet

Simple automated timesheet recording for Linux/Xorg. Every 30s or so, it looks at the title of your active window, and records the time and title if it has changed since last time.

Prerequisites

• xdotool (Compile from Git if your version doesn't have getwindowname)
• xprintidle

tmux

If you use tmux, you can name windows (using whatever rename-window is bound to) and show the window name in the window title by adding something like this to your .tmux.conf:

set -g set-titles on
set -g set-titles-string '#W'

Usage

Just run timesheet. You probably want to log the output::

timesheet | tee -a ~/timesheet.txt

To do

I haven't written the analysis tools yet.
