NAME

timew-start - start time tracking

SYNOPSIS

timew start [<date>] [<tag>...]

DESCRIPTION

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.

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.
