I frequently work less than 8-hour days, and not in any predictable way (i.e. I don't work exactly the same hours every week). I'd like to keep track of my time using timeclock. Is there a way, using the `timeclock-in'/`timeclock-out' mechanism, to say that "yesterday is over, start from 0 hours today"? This way if I record less than 8 hours one day, the next day starts counting fresh, instead of thinking I need to "make up" the rest of the eight hours not completed the day before. An acceptable approximation to a command that does the stuff above would be simply to zero out the time from any previous days when I clock in for the first time in a day. This way, when I clock in in the morning, timeclock wouldn't think I have time to make up. Thanks in advance. -Denis
