Hmmm, I don't really see the need/use for this, so I am not going to implement it. Maybe I can provide you with a hook and you write a package to use this hook? - Carsten --Apple-Mail-3--504107023 Content-Type: text/html; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Now I'm using org-mode extensively which has reignited my love for = emacs. I know org-mode displays the current task and the elapsed time on = the emacs modeline which is good.

Right now, I basically manually enter = this info into my custom timer when I clock in and out of a task in = org-mode.

Not sure whether others using org-mode feel a similar = need or whether they use any other = methods...

to use this = hook?
