Makefile	Made a proper Makefile as it should be fixing many errors, like ignoring VAR overwriting. Also, wherever meaningful, = was replaced with := that evaluates once. Also made use of so-called "Order-only prerequisites" in an install target to build a program if it is not already built. Also removed a dangerous rm -rf with rm -f for a LICENSE file and rmdir for a directory.	2024-05-19 05:29:13 +04:00

How to use

$ kwh-cost [OPTIONS] price wattage interval [interval ..]

Options are -v, --version to show program's version; and -h, --help to show usage of a program.

price is a price per kWh. wattage is how many Watts being consumed. interval is for how long.

interval is in seconds, but you can specify a unit. Units are the following: m|M for minutes; h|H for hours; and d|D for days. There could be as many intervals passed as you need.
