ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. Task Timer ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Task Timer
Task Timer will do some book keeping for you while you are working on your
computer. All you have to do, is to tell Task Timer whenever you start working
on a new project-task. Task Timer will stay minimized on the desktop and show
the actual project-task in the icon title.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. Installation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Installing Task Timer
To run Task Timer, copy the files tasktime.exe and tasktime.hlp to a directory,
where you usually keep your utilities.
Now create an icon in one of your favourite folders setting the Minimized
button behaviour to Minimize window to desktop. I also suggest that you put a
shadow of the Task Timer object in your startup folder, to have it started
whenever your system starts up.
To enable Task Timer to access its help file, either include the directory
holding tasktime.hlp in the HELP path or specify the path under Working
directory.

About the program
This programm was written after an idea of Les Clarks Time Keeper. His program
has a few unpleasant features amoung which, the registration fee is the most
unpleasant. So I wrote my own version which is free of charge and runs as a
little icon on the desktop .
