+
+The code for `timecmd` which measures elapsed time of commands specified as part of its command line.
+
+    Usage: timecmd [-bhoqrsV][-m|-u|-n] [-d fd] [--] cmd [arg ...]
+
+      -b     Do not print beginning information
+      -d fd  Print information to file descriptor fd (default: 2, stderr)
+      -h     Print this help message and exit
+      -m     Print elapsed time with milliseconds
+      -n     Print elapsed time with nanoseconds
+      -o     Only print command name and non-option arguments
+      -q     Only print command name (not arguments)
+      -r     Repeat command after total time
+      -s     Print elapsed time in seconds (not hours, minutes, seconds)
+      -u     Print elapsed time with microseconds
+      -V     Print version information and exit
+

+
+    $  timecmd -m sleep 65
