Is it in your plans to give Slife 2.0 an AppleScript dictionary?
I use MarcoPolo to manage the location of my computer based on IP location. I'd like to run an AppleScript to set the activity based on where I am. If I am at work (I am a sysadmin), I am likely using Safari to research a problem, look up something in a knowledge base, etc... If I am at home, I am probably just surfing the web.
This wouldn't be as necessary if the 'Web & Documents' feature in Slife would take a regexp filter (or even just basic wildcards) for the Title.a
Drag and Drop documents. I can add programs via drag and drop under preferences (in fact, am encouraged to), but if I want to add a document or file that is related to an Activity, I have to type in the file name.
Another possible option. I want to do this because I want to track time spent working in Word (once I figure out the untitled problem). Maybe there should be a way to drag and drop a document onto an Activity. In the day window, I can see a list of Activities. And I've been working on this file (CCON2008Parks.doc) for the last hour. The file belongs in the CCON activity. I wish I could drag and drop it over upon the CCON activity icon.
Or, maybe folder-based tracking. Yeah. Since I file all my projects in a folder, Maybe if it allowed me to watch a folder, and assign any file I open from there to a certain Activity....
Basically, it's really easy to keep track of time in general, but if I want to keep time based on an Activity, it isn't quite so easy. I'd love to see that become easier.
I'd like to know if it is possible to edit the activities with a plist editor or a text editor. Is it created as XML?
If not, Is there a way to export and import activities?
It would be great to have a document with your activities, so I could transfer my activities set (30 different activities) to my laptop and to my computer at home. That way I don't have to recreate all of them.
Are there ways to group activities? by color or hierarchy?
