In its simplest mode of operation, as a stopwatch, it simply counts the number of elapsed seconds while the timer is running. Unlike ordinary stopwatches, it will keep a log of each time that the timer was started and stopped. The log, or 'journal', can be annotated with comments, allowing a diary of events to be kept. *GnoTime* functions as a billing system by allowing you to assign a value to an hour's worth of time. You can specify overtime, double-overtime rates and fixed flat-fees. Individual chunks of time as 'billable', 'not-billable', 'no-charge', 'hold', and so on. *GnoTime* can also be used as a simple to-do list tracker. You can assign an urgency as well as an importance to a given project, assign an estimated start and end date, specify a sizing and a percent-complete value. Clicking on column headings will sort the list in the order of that column. Custom reports can be created using standard *HTML* enhanced with embedded *Scheme* (a *LISP* -like programming language). ## OPTIONS - **--display** specifies the X server that gnotime should connect to. Refer to the [X(1x)](/X/1x.md) manual page for more info. - **--geometry** specifies the *geometry* of the main window. The syntax **\[WIDTHxHEIGHT\]\[(+\|-)X(+\|-)Y\]** is just like the X toolkit option *geometry.* See [X(1x)](/X/1x.md) for more info. ## OTHER TYPES OF DOCUMENTATION You can find more information about *GnoTime* and its functions in the *Gnome help system.* Just select **Contents** from the **Help** menu to get there. ## SEE ALSO [X(1x)](/X/1x.md), the *GnoTime* Online Help, the *GNOME* Online Help. ## AUTHOR Copyright (C) 1997,1998 Eckehard Berns\ Copyright (C) 2001 Linas Vepstas \
