$ timest report simple
# Gathering data from day 2023-11-25
# ====TODAY'S TIMESHEET====
# ->>    2023-05-31
#  ________________________
# |  9  |  08:00:00  |  i  |
$ timest fix 9 o -t 11:24:38
$ timest report simple
# Gathering data from day 2023-11-25
# ====TODAY'S TIMESHEET====
# ->>    2023-05-31
#  ________________________
# |  9  |  11:24:38  |  o  |

Delete Entries

Use timest report simple to get entry ids, then run timest delete {id} to remove the bad entry.

$ timest clock i -t 8:00
$ timest clock i -t 8:01
$ timest report simple
# Gathering data from day 2023-11-25
