For builtins that have the same name as common commands, it might not be entirely obvious that there is another page. So, for those builtins, we add a note, but only in the man pages. (exception is true and false because the note would be longer than the page, and it's fridging true and false) Fixes #8077.

time - measure how long a command or block takes

Synopsis
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|

|

time COMMAND
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
.. only:: builder_man
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This page documents the fish keyword ``time``.
|
|
To see the documentation on the ``time`` command you might have,
|
|
use ``command man time``.
|
|
|
|
``time`` causes fish to measure how long a command takes and print the results afterwards. The command can be a simple fish command or a block. The results can not currently be redirected.
|
|
|
|
For checking timing after a command has completed, check :ref:`$CMD_DURATION <variables-special>`.
|
|
|
|
Your system most likely also has a ``time`` command. To use that use something like ``command time``, as in ``command time sleep 10``. Because it's not inside fish, it won't have access to fish functions and won't be able to time blocks and such.

Example

|
-------
|
|
|
|
(for obvious reasons exact results will vary on your system)
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
>_ time sleep 1s

Inline variable assignments need to follow the ``time`` keyword::

|
|
>_ time a_moment=1.5m sleep $a_moment
