Hi, I've checked archie and most of the comp.sources/comp.archives indices but can't find what I'm looking for. I would like to have a simple time/resource tracking system. (I realize that sounds like a contradiction in terms.) When our consultants are working on client A's project, they type in something like workingon a, and a log file is produced displaying how much real time and cpu time was spent until they either say workingon someone_else or logout. (Perhaps workingon could also take a brief description which is added to that entry of the log file.) It would also be nice to log printer/disk usage, but not necessary. We don't really want to bill people with this system, just get a realistic idea of how our time is spent. (Maybe someday we will account for every second of the day and bill for coffee breaks, like the big law firms, but that's when I quit.) Any help would be appreciated.
