Express tools - edittime

I have loaded the Bricscad Express Tools and there is an item /tools/dwg editing time - just like the autocad one. Click on it though - up pops 'Unable to recognize command "EDITTIME'.
it is a simple but effective time-in-drawing timer in Autocad.
shame it doesn't work.
Is there anything else, apart from the rather useless 'TIME' command?

    Further to the above
    Looking at the express tools help, the tools sub-menu does not have EDITTIME listed
    so that's why it doesn't work!

    By typing "time" the following appears

    I've seen that. But Edittime has a very useful feature - it can be set to timeout after a period - so when you go to lunch your drawing will not be updating the timer!

    Edittime is an Autodesk ARX file. There are quite a few links about converting ARX to BRX on the web. There is a Bricscad SDK available for signing up as a developer, but it would be beyond my expertise. I guess I'll just have to keep my work time on projects on scraps of paper and hope I don't miss anything!
