Have you ever been asked, "How much time left for render to finish?", and you couldn't answer even an estimate amount of time? Well it happens to me a lot! So i coded this little script/app that will monitor your render, calculate time estimates, etc.
Just place the script and .exe under your scripts folder, and run it with:
eval("source \"" + `internalVar -usd` + "chw_RenderMonitorV2.mel\"");
The script will ask you how many renderLayers are active for render and then start the batch.

I just realized that the historyLogfile ubication is hard coded in the exe so dont change it from the script.
