Anyone know of something similar for Ubuntu(Gnome)?

This appears to use JDIC, which is cross-platform - anyone know if this runs on other systems?

Unfortunately I've heavily hacked JDIC since it doesn't have 64bit binaries and uses JPopupMenus, which look and behave terribly in the MacOS status bar, thus making it MacOS only.

However, porting the project to using Java6's cross-platform tray support should be trivial.

For those of you who have never heard of this new-fangled "lein" build command, it's for Clojure projects. Installation instructions: https://github.com/technomancy/leiningen After installing, be sure to run `lein self-install`

Actually, it can be (and is) used as a general-purpose build tool. I'm using it in some otherwise Java-only projects, and — who knows — it might even start getting some love from Scala hackers:

Once jark (a persistent Clojure/JVM backend @ http://icylisper.in/jark/) is made to work well with Leiningen, then the combination might be a reasonable replacement for sbt.

anyone seen an automatic time tracking app that actually works? I used to use rescue time, but it seems their grouping via keywords is gone now :(

I use Desktop Task Timer (OS X). It was very inexpensive on the app store, and reduces the overhead of tracking time for my customers every day. I also use org mode a lot in Emacs for managing tasking.

What does jark have over swank?
