NAME
     timew-continue - resume tracking of existing interval

SYNOPSIS
     timew continue [<id>|<tag>...] [<datetime>|<range>]

DESCRIPTION
     The 'continue' command is used to resume tracking specified by a closed in-
     terval. This command is a convenient way to resume work without re-entering
     the tags.

     The interval to be resumed can be specified either by its id or by a set of
     tags. Specifying multiple ids or both ids and tags will result in an error.

     When given a set of tags, the first interval matching it will be taken as a
     blueprint	for  the new interval. When given neither id nor tags, the first
     interval in the database is taken.

     When no datetime or range given, the new interval is started at the current
     time.

EXAMPLES
     Using the 'summary' command and specifying the ':ids' hint  shows	interval
     IDs. Consider the following intervals:

	 $ src/timew summary :ids

	 Wk  Date	Day ID Tags		Start	   End	  Time	 Total
	 W23 2020-06-04 Thu @4 BAR	     13:00:00 14:00:00 1:00:00
			    @3 BAR, FOO      14:00:00 15:00:00 1:00:00
			    @2 BAR, BAZ, FOO 15:00:00 16:00:00 1:00:00
			    @1 FOO	     16:00:00 17:00:00 1:00:00 4:00:00

	 4:00:00

     Simple continue

	     $ timew continue

     The  'continue' command creates a new open interval, starting now, with tag
     'FOO'

     Continue an interval via id

	     $ timew continue @3

     The 'continue' command creates a new open interval, starting now, with tags
     'BAR' and 'FOO'.

     Continue an interval via tag set

	     $ timew continue FOO BAR

     The 'continue' command creates a new open interval, starting now, with tags
     'FOO', 'BAR', and 'BAZ'.

     Note that the first matching interval (here '@2') is taken as  a  blueprint
     for the new interval, although '@3' would have been a perfect match for the
     given tag set. The command 'timew continue BAR' would have the same effect.
     This means that there is no way to continue '@4' via a tag set.

     Continue an interval at a specific date & time

	     $ timew continue @4 19:00	(1)
	     $ timew continue FOO 19:00 (2)

     The 'continue' command creates a new open interval

      1. with tag 'BAR' (as specified by '@4') and start time '19:00'.

      2. with tag 'FOO' (as specified by '@1') and start time '19:00'.

	 Continue an interval with a specific range

		 $ timew continue @4 19:00 - 20:00  (1)
		 $ timew continue FOO 19:00 - 20:00 (2)

     The 'continue' command creates a new closed interval

      1. with tag 'BAR' (as specified by '@4'), start time '19:00', and end time
	 '20:00'.

       2. with	tag 'FOO' (as specified by '@1') and start time '19:00', and end
	 time '20:00'.
