Start time tracking
Usage
timew start
[<date>]
[<tag> ...]
Overview
Begins tracking using the current time with any specified set of tags. If a tag contains multiple words, therefore containing spaces, use quotes to surround the whole tag.
Hints
The start command accepts the following hints:
:fill
The ':fill' hint can be used to create a new interval that starts right after the last closed interval. This is useful when you want to start tracking time immediately after finishing a previous task without specifying a start time.
Examples
For example, this command specifies two tags ('weekend' and 'Home & Garden'), the second of which requires quotes.
$ timew start weekend 'Home & Garden'
An optional date may be specified to indicate the intended start of the tracked time:
$ timew start 8am weekend 'Home & Garden'
If there is a previous open interval, it will be closed at the given start time.
Quotes are harmless if used unnecessarily.
