Abstract                :  ts_monthly is a script to allow us to get a calendar month's time 
                           against a particular project - reported by person by day (you can also get
                           all projects, but be warned that this creates quite a big file ...)
                          
                          It was created to allow us to get away from having to use paper
                          timesheets to work out what to charge those clients who required billing to
                          a calendar month rather than to CiTR's standard timesheet month.
                          
                          The command arguments and an example of its use are given in 
                          "Additional_Info" below.
                          
                          Note that internal revenue and cost calculations should still be worked to
                          CiTR's timesheet month when reporting revenue, etc...
