µTimer 0.3 released!
Posted on June 1st, 2009 by Weboide
Here is a new release of µTimer, it is now version 0.3.
This version introduces new features and also lots of code improvements.
Change log between 0.3 and 0.2.1
- Added the stopwatch feature!
- utimer --stopwatch
- Now you can pause and resume the timer/stopwatch/countdown using the Spacebar
- Added --enable-debug=[no/minimal/yes] option to configure
- Now completely rely on GTimers for calculating the elapsed time
- Added testing units (can be run when bulding utimer, using: make test)
- Lots of code cleanup
- Dropped the stability for releases (stable/unstable) as they weren't very meaningful.
Since theres no other way to contact you I'm making a post here.
WordPress converts double hyphen to dash automatically:
* utimer –stopwatch
But I'm guessing it should be:
* utimer --stopwatch

Another usefull tip for a Linuxuser/coder using WP:

lol, forgot that the double hyphen doesnt works in comments either.
Thank you very much for those tips, the only thing is that any upgrade would overwrite this changes...
Hund, I found the wp-typography plugin which seems to have fixed those issues!

WordPress is very annoying. I dislike when it replaces quotes. I don't use it.. but when reading blogs I notice.
I am glad I found your utimer, I was lookin fr somthing simple to minutize my work. The only thing I found annoying is that you need to have very recent version of glib and intltool. It is a pity one who have a system that is just a bit old, won't be able to compile such a simple tool.
Hey Regis, Thanks you for your comment, I think the source code itself should be compatible with earlier versions, but I haven't tried. I will to look at this issue and see if I can lower the requirements for glib and intltool for the next release.
Hi. On my gentoo, I had to upgrade my glib to >=2.18.2 version and intltool to >=0.40.5. Those versions are not that recent I guess, but recent enough to have me updating my libs. I guess those restrictions could indeed be lowered in the configure script. Anyway, very useful tool to me, thanks you.
Regis, please try the new version 0.4 in which I lowered the requirements.
