Hi Flávio,

I'm assuming you are clocking your tasks which creates clock lines.  In
this case the agenda can summarize your clocked tasks - it will include
any tasks you have that contribute to the agenda (ie. are in
org-agenda-files)

'R' in the agenda will display the summary report of clocked times.
This is across multiple files but similarly named tasks will not be
combined.  If you only want the time for a single day then limit the
agenda to single day view (with 'd') and display the report.

You can move the date with the left and right arrow keys and the report
will display the summary for that date.

HTH,
Bernt
