 - Managing the timer with the excellent [[https://github.com/magit/transient/blob/master/lisp/transient.el][transient.el]].
 - Persistent state between Emacs sessions.
   The timer state isn't reset if you close Emacs. Also, the state file can be synchronized between machines.
+- History.
+  I've implemented an option to store the timer history to a CSV file. Eventually I want to join this with [[https://activitywatch.net/][other activity data]] to see if the state of the timer actually changes how I use the computer.
 
 None of the available [[*Alternatives][alternatives]] were doing quite what I wanted, and the idea of the timer is quite simple, so I figured I'd implement one myself.

 ** State file location
 The package stores the current state to a file by the path =pomm-state-file-location=, which is =emacs.d/pomm= by default. Set it to wherever you like.
+** History
+If you set the =pomm-csv-history-file= variable, the package will write CSV with the usage history there. Just keep in mind that the parent directory has to exist.
+
+The file has the following columns:
+- =timestamp=
+- =status= (=stopped=, =paused= or =running=, according to the [[*Usage][usage]] section)
+- =kind= (=work=, =short-break=, =long-break= or =nil=)
+- =iteration=

+A new entry is written after a particular state of the timer comes into being.
