Long-time DS-Scene member Foxi4 has created a new stopwatch application for the DS. It's in an early stage still, but it looks really nice already!

The name says it all - it's a stopwatch.
Why make one? Well, usually when you have a digital stopwatch, you have access to a few functions: the time, the date and the stopwatch itself, but you can only use one function at a time. Not only that, but most stopwatches have a limit of 5 lap times! Another problem with traditional stopwatches is that sometimes you can accidentally press the reset button and loose all your lap times.
This stopwatch shows you everything - the date, the current time, total time of all laps and up to 48 laps on the top screen! The reset function locks itself when the stopwatch is in-use, so you'll never loose your lap times again. It's easy-to-use for anyone and it has a nice "tick" to it.
[...]
Future plans regarding the project:
* Miliseconds support * Counting the time difference between laps * Nicer graphical GUI, hopefuly with an "analog" watch face and watch hands in addition to the digital display
I know it looks "meh" at the moment, I hate the text-only interface myself. Thing is, I want to figure out all the math stuff behind the app before I start working on the eye-pleasing side of the project. Hehe, thanks for uploading it to the download section Nadrian, now it'll be way easier to keep track of it.
So, remember, if you make a new version, PM one (or more, if you're impatient ) of the staff members with a download link and, of course, the fixes/changes.

I told you I'd do it.

Lol, don't worry, I'm not going to bother you very often. The next version will probably be the final one unless someone finds bugs in this one.
As usual, this was programmed in DSGM5 with the use of some Palib in case someone asks.
