[link] 2005-03-12T21:07:54 how long did I spend on that code:

I want an editor that counts how long I spend on code files. This is a function of when I make edits to the files, when the editor window has focus, when the console is non-idle (mouse/keybd moved recently). Time spent looking something up in a manual does not need to be counted as time spent on the code.

Presumably I don't want to exaggerate the time spent on code, so I won't generate fake edit events (such as toggling the up/down arrow keys in the editor while I'm on the phone).

I want to be able to report per project, per type of project, etc how long things take to write. I may also want to see how long I'm able to work on each project/type every day.
