What is GnoTime?
================
GnoTime is a combination stop-watch, diary, consultant billing
system and project manager.  You can measure the amount of time you
spend on a task, associate a memo with it, set a billing rate, print
an invoice, as well as track that status of other projects.

GnoTime used to be called GTT and GTimeTracker, and used to be a 
part of gnome-utils, before being renamed and split out into its 
own package.

Features
========
Please see the GnoTime web page for a list of features.

Status
======
GnoTime has been ported to use Gnome2.  Note, however, that it still
uses some of the older, deprecated widgets; most notably gtkctree.
The new gnome2 treeview widget lacks many of the features needed to
support the keyboard/mouse mannerisms of GnoTime, thereby making
a full port impossible (although one is attempted in src/ctree-gnome2.c).
(The notes at the top of that file describe what's wrong.)

There are still numerous areas of gtt that lack polish.  Exporting
a to-do list is one of them.


Authors
=======
This program was originally written by Eckehard Berns
<eb@berns.prima.de>, but has been greatly expanded by Linas Vepstas
<linas@linas.org>.  

Thanks go out to many people who e-mailed me with suggestions and 
bug fixes.  See the "about" window in the app for more details.
