# time.txt Simple plain-text time tracking. The Python script `tx` provides short-hands for accessing and reading a `time.txt` file, as described below. ## Installation For testing, you can just run `tx` in this directory using `./tx`. If you want to be able to use it anywhere, run `install.sh`. The `tx` command should then be available in any folder. ## Usage Create a new `time.txt` file at the current location: `tx create` Add a time entry: `tx add 01:00 Totally productive work` View the total unbilled time: `tx total` or simply `tx` Remove time which was billed: `tx bill 05:00 Fee note for this month` ## Format The `time.txt` file is written in the following format: ``` 2020-08-12 01:00 Work on Task 1 2020-08-12 03:00 Work on Task 2 2020-08-16 05:00 Finish Task 2 2020-08-31 -08:00 Fee note for August ``` With this file, the total amount of (unbilled) hours is 01:00. All `tx` commands are simply short-hands for accessing and reading this file comfortably. It can be edited manually at any time.
