timepaster

====================

A very simple command line time card calculator to get the decimal difference

between hh:mm-hh:mm. The basis of the code was copied a long time ago from a

page I cannot find anymore, so I cannot cite the original author (I would like

to, though).

This is typically something you can use if you have to fill in time sheets or

time tracking software. On the commandline you would do the following:

    $ timepaster

    $ Enter Start-End (hh:mm-hh:mm): 09.36-11.18 

and the result is displayed as:

               Duration: 1 hrs and 42 min

               Decimal difference: 1.7

               ______________________________

**The decimal time difference is also loaded into the clipboard**. So now you can

just "paste" (ctrl-v) from your system clipboard and the calculated value

will appear.

The time notation with points is simply because 09.36 is faster to type

on a numpad than 09:36.

Type "quit" to exit the commandline app.

**TODO:**

- Use copied time calculatoin strings as input  (copy: 12.36-16.42 and place the 

  result in the clipboard)

- Accept different time formats (as long as they are consistent) such as 

  01.36, 01:36, 1:36.
