arbtt Description

The automatic rule-based time tracker arbtt (automatic rule-based time tracker) is a desktop daemon that runs in the background and, every minute, records what windows are open on your desktop, what their titles are, which one is active.The accompanied statistics program lets you derive information from this log file, i.e. what how much of your time have you been spending with e-Mail, or what projects are your largest time wasters. The mapping from the raw window titles to sensible „tags“ is done by a configuration file with an powerful syntax. See the documentation for more detailed information.Installation:You can build and install this program as any other Cabalized program:runhaskell Setup.hs configurerunhaskell Setup.hs buildrunhaskell Setup.hs installYou also need to make sure that arbtt-capture is started with your X session. If you use GNOME or KDE, you can copy the file "arbtt-capture.desktop" to ~/.config/autostart/. You might need to put the full path to arbtt-capture in the Exec line there, if you did not do a system wide installation.If you want to record samples at a different rate than one per minute, you will have to pass the "--sample-rate" parameter to arbtt-capture.
