Describe the current limitation

There is no easy way to export work times in a human readable format.

Describe the proposed feature or enhancement

It should be possible to copy work times of multiple days to clipboard in a human readable format.

E.g.

Day             Start   Lunch Start     Lunch End   Day End    Day Total
MON 09/26       7:48    12:20           12:50       16:18      8:00
MON 09/27       8:47    12:03           12:34       17:00      7:42

Do you have any special objective for the copied text?
Copying to a report or so?
I say that because the exported ttldb files are in json format, which is "readable" if the intention is only to store the values.

In my case, I have to report my times to my manager via email every week, if I could solve this with copy & paste it would be a little easier.

It is good to know that the TTLDB is a Json file I could thus also write a script for automation if the solution via the clipboard is not intended for time-to-leave.

Note that the app has an export function too on the menu

Hmm, interesting.
I think such a feature might fall in nice with #196.

Yes! I think this matches a lot the idea in #196.
@BamButz, in your case, you would be targeting only a weekly report? Or do you think other ranges would be interesting?

@thamara yes you're right, in my case I would mainly targeting a weekly report. There is also the case that the end of the month is in the middle of the week, in which case a selection of days would be useful or maybe you could use just the days of the week until "today".

I'll work on a proposal for a report and will update #196 with it and I'll consider your use case on it too.

Reporting will be tracked in #196.
