Before using xqtime, you first need to setup your Qtime database using the newqtime command.
At your command prompt, enter newqtime RelationName
where
RelationName
is the name of your new Qtime
database name.
A new directory named RelationName
will be created beneath
your current directory. Alternatively, you can specify
a full path for your new database. A common approach is to store all
your databases in a common location. For example, suppose
you like to keep all your databases in
/usr/local/databases
. If you wanted to create
a new ``MyProjects'' Qtime database, you would enter
the command shown in figure 3.1.
If you run newqtime without any arguments, newqtime
will
create a relation named Qtime-db in your current directory.
Once you've created your database using newqtime
, you can
add, modify, import/export, delete entries from this database
using the xqtime
program.
