t is a shell script for working with ledger's timelog format, based on Justing Harding's fork (https://github.com/justinharding/t) of Chase James's t (https://github.com/nuex/t) incorporating ideas from the tito script and then heavily modified by me.

# t is a utility to work with (h)ledger *.timeclock files
# see github.com/linuxcaffe/task-timelog-hook/
Download and install the script to a bin directory that exists in your $PATH. For example, $HOME/bin:
curl --silent -G https://raw.github.com/linuxcaffe/t -o ~/bin/t
chmod +x ~/bin/t
Set the location of your timelog file:
export $TIMELOG=$HOME/path/to/my.timeclock
Because this script is designed to work with task-timelog-hook
the default location is $HOME/.task/hooks/task-timelog-hook/task.timeclock.
but you can can change it, and other settings, but editing the script.
NOTE: althought the term "timelog" is consistent for this process,
for some reason the recognized file extension must be *.timeclock.
So think of the process as timelogging into a timeclock file, ok?
Usage: t<space><action> or t<CR> for status "t" is for "timelog"

Even though this works with ledger 3, the timelog format is only referenced in the ledger v2 documents. Here are a few resources about the timelog format:
- Using timeclock to record billable time
- timelog files - from the hledger project
