The mouse and keyboard counter seems to be inaccurate, sometimes not incrementing, sometimes incrementing by one, and sometimes incrementing by two or three. Most often it is 2 at a time, but if I click and drag, then it increments by one when I first click it down, and increments again when I let go. Also, keystrokes are not reported accurately. This seems to be true for both windows and linux. In addition, on windows, a mouseclick sometimes counts as a keystroke. My distro: Archlinux---most recent version as of Tue 16.

Hi, There is a known problem with 1.8.5 and keystrokes being recorded twice. As far as I know the problem only occurs on Windows. The source was patched last month and so the problem is fixed in nightly builds. > In addition, on windows, a mouseclick sometimes counts as a keystroke. Really? Is it any particular mouse button? What kind of mouse do you have? This bug report says you are using 1.8.6... but 1.8.6 isn't out yet. Are you using a nightly build of Workrave? Would you please give us the version you are using on Linux, and the version you are using on Windows? Thanks, Ray

I have same issue with 1.8.5 running WinXp. Keystrokes are counted double times. When next version is going to be ready?
