DESCRIPTION
Pondus is a personal weight manager that keeps track of your body
weight. It aims to be simple to use, lightweight and fast. The data can
be plotted to get a quick overview of the history of your weight. A
simple weight planner allows to define "target weights" and this plan
can be compared with the actual measurements in a plot.
By default, the user data is stored in ~/.pondus/datasets.xml and is
written to this file automatically on exit, so you donīt have to worry
about saving the data you entered.
All functionality is available via the toolbar or via keyboard/mouse
shortcuts. The following shortcuts are currently used:
CTR-a add new dataset
CTR-d, Delete delete selected dataset
Return, Double-click edit selected dataset
CTR-p plot weight vs time
To improve the workflow, the add dialog is initialized with the current
date and the last measured weight. Both date and weight can be
incremented/decremented by one day/0.1kg(lbs) by pressing "+" or "-",
respectively. Pressing "Enter" in one of the entry fields is a shortcut
for clicking the "OK"-button.
A simple weight planner allows you to define future "target weights",
i.e. the weight you want to have at some future date. After enabling
the weight planner in the preferences, a selector at the bottom of the
main window determines whether you are currently editing the weight
measurements or the weight plan.
The CSV im-/export dialogs allow to im-/export weight data from/to
other applications. Currently, the only supported format is
2008-03-26,81.3 (for example).
