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 don´t 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).
