Remove tags from intervals

Usage

timew untag [<id> ...] <tag> ...

Overview

The 'untag' command is used to remove a tag from an interval. Using the 'summary' command, and specifying the ':ids' hint shows interval IDs. Using the right ID, you can identify an interval to untag.

Examples

For example, show the IDs:

$ timew summary :week :ids

Then having selected '@2' as the interval you wish to untag:

$ timew untag @2 'Old Tag'

Note that you can untag multiple intervals, with multiple tags:

$ timew untag @2 @10 @23 'Old Tag' tag2 tag3

If there is active time tracking, you can omit the ID when you want to remove tags from the current open interval:

$ timew start foo bar
$ timew untag bar

This results in the current interval having tag 'foo' but not 'bar'.
