 Hello,

Hi, Erik!

 Is there any concept of being able to run multiple, simultaneous
 clocks in org-mode.  For example, I want one clock to track my total
 hours during the week at work, i.e., punch in and punch out.

 Then, while that clock is running, I would use the normal clocking
 functionality to keep track of time on specific projects.

 As it is, clocking into a new task clocks out of the current task.

 There may not be a way, but thought I'd ask!

I do this by using a special clocktable block that reads an entire
agenda.  Try this on for size:

#+BEGIN: clocktable :maxlevel 3 :scope agenda :block thisweek
#+END

It adds up all time spent on various tasks and gives me a total.  I
suppose you can't really have two clocks running at once, but this works
great for me.

To punch in and punch out I use:

timeclock.el

--in addition to a mix of OrgMode and PlannerMode

But to be very precise on each task I do: timeclock.el works great for me.

No.  Org-mode clocking clocks a single task at a time.  You can't do two
things at once :)


 Then, while that clock is running, I would use the normal clocking
 functionality to keep track of time on specific projects.

I punch in to a default task which starts my clocking day.  Everytime I
clock out the default task is clocked in to keep every minute clocked
from the moment I punch in until I punch out.

Publishing my current clocking setup is on my todo list and will be on
http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html soon.


 As it is, clocking into a new task clocks out of the current task.

That will do!  That's all I really wanted, just wasn't aware of all the 
functionality.  Thanks, I've found your org-mode.html descriptions very helpful.

I'll make an effort to update my clocking details tonight.  Punching in
and out doesn't work automatically in org-mode without a bunch of setup.

I've been using this setup for a few weeks now and I really like it.

The site has been updated.  Hopefully I didn't miss anything important.
