.Sh NAME
.Nm ts
.Nd timestamp input
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm ts
.Op Fl i | s
.Op Fl m
.Op Ar format
.Sh DESCRIPTION
When invoked, the
.Nm
utility adds a timestamp to the beginning of each line of input.
.Pp
The options are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fl i
Display time elapsed since the last timestamp.
.It Fl m
Display timestamps derived from a strictly linearly increasing clock.
Without
.Fl m ,
timestamps reflect the current date and time, including time jumps if the
system time is changed.
.It Fl s
Display time elapsed since the start of the program.
.El
.Pp
The optional
.Ar format
argument controls how the timestamp is displayed, according to the conversion
specifications described in the
.Xr strftime 3
manual page.
The default format is
.Qq %b %d %H:%M:%S ,
or
.Qq %H:%M:%S
if an option is used.
.Pp
The following non-standard conversion specifications append microsecond
resolution:
.Cm \&%.S ,
.Cm \&%.s ,
and
.Cm \&%.T ;
which are similar to
.Cm \&%S ,
.Cm \&%s ,
and
.Cm \&%T .
Examples:
.Qq 10.00001 ,
.Qq 1656427781.00001 ,
and
.Qq 4:20:00.00001 .
