A simple, cross-platform, privacy-oriented time tracker for the command line.
playtime is a command line tool that launches an executable, tracks how long the application stays open, and saves the session info (start timestamp and duration) to a database when the application is terminated. This is mainly intended for logging playtime in individual games (similar to what Steam or Epic Games offer), but can also be used as a simple way of tracking work or studying time (similar to bartib or Timewarrior).
