Type `t stop` to stop the timer. The timer will keep on running until you stop it or set a new one. This is so that you can track how much time you ran over.

`t 10s` `t 10sec` `t 10seconds`

`t 5m` `t 5min` `t 5minutes`

`t 1h` `t 1hour`

If you want to display a name in front of the timer, put it first, like `t work 15min`.
