Tempus Fugit - project timing made easy
Purpose of the program
Tempus fugit is a project or task timer. During your work day, you do all kinds of things, but don't have the time to write down how much time you spent doing what. After the week, your boss is going to ask you, "What have you done this whole week!?". Now you can report very easy about the amount of time you needed to complete you jobs.
You may monitor up to 32 tasks, pause timing, use the data to generate reports and all that from a single exe and an easy to understand INI file.
To make things even more convenient, the first task will automatically be active after starting Tempus Fugit. That way should use this for the default task so you don't have to remember to start the task timer. Of course you may change this behavior in the INI file, if you like.
After exiting Tempus fugit, the program will collect this data and save them to an addtional section in the INI file, this keeping a daily report of you task time slots.
License & Legal stuff
Executive summary: it is free, you use it at your own risk, you may bundle it if you ask me, you may use it in commercial environments, there is no
guaranteed individual support, I answer when I have time. Have fun!

Installation
Copy the exe and ini file to a directory of your choice. That's it! If you like, you may of course add a shortcut to the executable program.
De-Installation is just as easy: just delete tempus.exe and tempus.ini and you are done. Tempus does not use the registry, changes system settings or
does anything else to change you system.
As Tempus Fugit appends timing report data to the INI file, this file has to writable for the user and it has to be in the same folder as the program.
Usage of Tempus Fugit
Please see the PDF file in the archive for an extensive documentation.
Why the name?
Tempus fugit is Latin for "time flies". If you ever worked in a software
project team, you know why I selected this name ...
