In any case, I would like to have entries in the clock report by tag as opposed to headline (as alluded to above). Is this actually possible? My logging approach is to have descriptive headings (the specific task undertaken) with tags indicating the type of activity (teaching, research, admin, personal). I need a breakdown of my time spent in each category in one table. I realise I can do N tables, one for each tag, but this is not particularly useful for me. It'll do but if there's a nicer solution, I'll take it! The documentation refers to a :formatter entry, but I am not sure whether this is relevant as it says that this is for formatting an entry. My problem is that I want tag based entries, not how they are formatted? Apologies if I've missed something obvious in the manual! Thanks, eric -- Eric S Fraga (GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D)
