• ▶️/⏸️ Supports start, pause, and continue timing, with multi-segment timing accumulation for a single task
• ⏳ Real-time display of accumulated time
• 💾 Timing data is persistently saved

[Strongly Recommended] Write your task first before adding a timer!

(2) Mouse Operations

1. Right-click on a text line
2. Select "Start Timer", "Pause Timer", or "Continue Timer"

Notes

• It is recommended to keep the file (containing a running tiemr) open; otherwise, the real-time second updates of the timer may fail.
• However, the file will record the timer state, which can be manually resumed.
