== [http://userbase.kde.org/KTimeTracker ktimetracker] ==
I maintain ktimetracker which is part of every major Linux distribution.
KTimeTracker tracks time spent on various tasks.

;Challenge:
You are a software consultant with several customers and many project assignments. When billing your customers, you are required to report how much time you spend on what task. 

;Solution
Use KTimeTracker to hold a list of projects and tasks. Whenever you switch your activity, double-click on the respective task and see how its time gets tracked. At the end of the day (or month) you can obtain a journal how much time you spent on what task.

== Abandoned software ==
I wrote a lot of software and understood later that better software already exists. Anyway it was great writing it and I learned a lot:
* [[Software/SimpleCounter|SimpleCounter]] : A website counter. You could prevent your own IP from being logged. Better use apache's ''access_log''.
* reboot_via_http : This program rebooted your web server when you called it. Better use [http://www.webmin.com webmin].
* add_toc : This program modified your C source code so it tells you what function is entered. Better use [http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdesdk/scripts/add_trace.pl?view=log add_trace].
* simkey : This program simulated pressing a key. Since xautomation has my XFlush patch now, better use [http://www.hoopajoo.net/projects/xautomation.html xautomation] or [http://www.kdab.com/?page=products&sub=kdexecutor KDExecutor]
* [[run_as_daemon]] : This program allowed you to start a program and send it to the background under Windows. Better use the start command.
* [[KMobileLock]] : Locked your screen when your bluetooth mobile phone went away. Better use [http://blueproximity.sourceforge.net/ blueproximity].
