This plugin displays time connected in the status bar. It can be reset to zero when you like.

The time is shown as hours and minutes (eg. 4h 22m) - if you are connected for more than a day then it will show more than 24 hours. You could amend it slightly to change that if you wanted.

Commands
--------

timerreset  - reset timer to zero
Timer:help  - show this help
