TRINFINITY SOFTWARE RELEASES TIME TRACK 2.0 FOR MACINTOSH AND WINDOWS For immediate release. NEW YORK, N.Y. - - August 27, 2004 - - Trinfinity Software released today an update to Time Track, it's popular time tracking software, designed for consultants and freelancers to minimize the time spent logging hours and to enhance billing accuracy. Time Track for Palm OS has been released and Time Track 2.0 for Macintosh and Windows is required in order to share log files among the three platforms. Users can choose between using the original log format or the new Palm compatible log format. There are also new export options to convert between the two formats. Macintosh users can now synchronize their log files with Time Track for Palm OS using the Time Track Conduit. A conduit for Windows is currently under development. In addition to Time Track for Palm compatibilty, Time Track 2.0 offers a number of new features and improvements. The user can now add an unlimited amount of text to a log entry using the Additional Description window. This update includes undo and redo support for the Start and Stop logging buttons on Main Window, an improved HTML design for exporting log files as web pages, and a log file editing window so that users can edit existing log entries without being concerned with damaging the log file. In addition, the user can now change the location of the Logs folder via the Logs tab in the Preferences window, edit the content of the log file banner via the Banner tab in the Preferences window, and customize the font and size used to display log files. Time Track's AutoTrack feature allows users to automatically track the time spent using almost any application without having to click on the start and stop button. This feature has been designed to enhance workflow and prevent the user from losing time because they forgot to start logging. The AutoTrack Monitor window allows the user to see which AutoTrack applications are running and how much time has elapsed since they started being logged. Time Track has several features that allow it to run autonomously in the background, including the ability to have Time Track launched when the computer boots up and the ability to send the application to the background when launched. The AutoTrack feature is only available for Macintosh. Time Track is AppleScriptable and the downloadable archive contains sample scripts for controlling Time Track. One of the included samples is a FolderAction script that can be used to turn logging on when a folder is opened and turn logging off when the folder is closed. This is a great solution for users that want to track the usage of files rather than applications. Time Track automatically checks to see if there is a newer version available and informs the user if there is one available. This feature can be disabled. The user can also manually check for updates via the "Check For Updates" menu item to the "Online" menu. Time Track 2.0 has a new bug reporting window which gathers the crash log and system information and emails the bug report without the need to open an email program. The specific issues addressed in this and previous updates are listed in the "Time Track Version History" file located in the "Documentation" folder of the downloadable archive. Time Track 2.0 costs $24.95 for a single user license. Site licenses and world-wide site licenses are also available. Registered users of Time Track 1.x can upgrade to 2.0 for $15.00 (Single User License). New users can download and evaluate Time Track 2.0 for 30 days.
