Examples

The following examples should make the format clear.

Full Featured Entry Line

A full entry using all of the features would look line this:

    2013-07-01 10:01:23 +Timelog @Document File Format

The project in this case is Timelog, which specifies that I am working on this module. The task name is Docment, which means I am documenting something on the project. The string ‘File Format’ specifies more detail on what I am documenting.

This task began just after 10:01 on July 1st.

Entry With No Detail

This following entry contains both a project and a task, but with no extra detail.

    2013-07-01 08:05:14 +Admin @Email

In this case, I’m just checking my email for the morning. There is really no need for any more detail than that. Although not a real project, grouping miscellaneous tasks through the day into a Admin pseudo-project simplifies tracking administrative tasks.

Entry with No Explicit Task

    2013-07-01 13:05:45 +Timelog Submit to crates.io

In this case, the task would be ‘Submit to crates.io’ because I haven’t separated the task name from the details.

Entry with No Explicit Task or Project

   2013-07-01 13:14:38 Cleaning desk

This entry has no project for grouping and the task would be ‘Cleaning desk’ because there is not separate task name.
