3 =head1 NAME
5 ts - timestamp input
7 =head1 SYNOPSIS
9 ts [-r] [-i | -s] [format]
11 =head1 DESCRIPTION
13 ts adds a timestamp to the beginning of each line of input.
15 The optional format parameter controls how the timestamp is formatted,
16 as used by L<strftime(3)>. The default format is "%b %d %H:%M:%S". In
17 addition to the regular strftime conversion specifications, "%.S" and "%.s"
18 are like "%S" and "%s", but provide subsecond resolution
19 (ie, "30.00001" and "1301682593.00001").
21 If the -r switch is passed, it instead converts existing timestamps in
22 the input to relative times, such as "15m5s ago". Many common timestamp
23 formats are supported. Note that the Time::Duration and Date::Parse perl
24 modules are required for this mode to work. Currently, converting localized
25 dates is not supported.
27 If both -r and a format is passed, the existing timestamps are
28 converted to the specified format.
30 If the -i or -s switch is passed, ts timestamps incrementally instead. In case
31 of -i, every timestamp will be the time elapsed since the last timestamp. In
32 case of -s, the time elapsed since start of the program is used.
33 The default format changes to "%H:%M:%S", and "%.S" and "%.s" can be used
34 as well.
36 =head1 ENVIRONMENT
38 The standard TZ environment variable controls what time zone dates
39 are assumed to be in, if a timezone is not specified as part of the date.
