Re: My last working day of 2007
Actually I want to put the funny statistic on web. It means create a simple website and show informations such as that picture. But the hard job is I don't know how to collect the log info from client. If I have to install something I don't think people would dare to install it - it is too dangerous to use, and without big benefit. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: My last working day of 2007
Jack It's simple, a small program running on background, logging the Jack title of foreground window. A python script parses the log file Jack and then generates chart by matplotlib. Jack I just want to get suggestions to improve it, or know the news Jack that somebody had implemented a better one so I can abandon my Jack toy. For starters, you might figure out how to make it work on a real operating system which allows multiple active processes. Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. Say no more. Say no more. ;-) -- Skip Montanaro - s...@pobox.com - http://smontanaro.dyndns.org/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

It's a bit hard to tell just from the screenshot... Do you have some code we could look at? Would be perhaps good to sub-log each window's title so that you could subdivide, for example, Firefox's time by the pages you were looking at (this would work quite well for numerous apps.) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

For starters, you might figure out how to make it work on a real operating system which allows multiple active processes. Well the computer can do things in paralell. Most human beings, and according to stereotypes especially male human beings are only single tasking, (like the mouse focus). So if you want to find out what a user is busy with I guess, that the title of the window in focus is probaly a very reasonable indicator. Of course if you want to find out what the computer is busy with, then you should make statistics of the processes and heir cpu loads. bye N Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. Say no more.
