Andrew Lunde shared an idea in RescueTime on April 09, 2008 15:33:
Using a Proxy Server to manipulate time events.I'm working on a custom web proxy that the RescueTime app would use to relay it's updates through. The primary goal is to allow me a chance to reformat the time events and give them more a more specific app_name so that I can tag them with more ganularity. From looking at the discussion boards, it seems that this feature may be built into the app at a future time, but by using a proxy, I can also trigger sending time events to another time-tracking system.
Right now, I can use my proxy with a web browser and (although slow) it works fine but when I point my ResueTime app to it, it times out on trying to receive the handshake response.
Is there a way to change the timeout of the RescueTime app(Windows)?
I'll be happy to post the proxy script when I get it working.

I've been working on accomplishing this with a custom proxy server. Basically I funnel the request through it and modify the app_name accordingly. Here are a couple of the regexps I use.
This is a snippet of PHP from my proxy server.
case "phped":
$preg_match_str = "@^\'(.+)\+-\+(.+)\+-\+.+\'$@";
preg_match($preg_match_str, $this_val, $matches);
$app = $matches[1];
print("app:" . $app . ":\n");
$project = $matches[2];
print("project:" . $project . ":\n");
break;
....
This works for strings like 'phped+-+Project+-+blahblah'
This would be similar to the VisualStudio example above.
