Creativity, subversion, gkrellm…

Monitoring progress of a project can provide a fascinating from of motivation. Since using the subversion version control system to keep my source code backed up, I would love to use gkrellm to graph the activity of my repository over time. What does the pattern of my work look like? I’d like to know. At the moment, my C programming is not strong, and it would seem that gkrellm plugins are “shared object files”, which I am assuming must be programmed in C. However, I don’t like to assume, and can’t think of a valid reason why this must be the case, but I simply don’t know. The creation of a gkrellm plugin, in C, that can monitor the activity of a subversion repository would be an excellent project, and provide motivation to become a more competent C programmer.
