;;; Commentary:

;; Export the currently clocked-in task in JSON format that Waybar can process
;;
;; To use it, customize the `org-clock-waybar-filename' variable (defaults to
;; $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/waybar-current-task.json) and add the following snippet to
;; your Waybar config:
;;
;; "custom/org": {
;;   "format": " {}",
;;   "return-type": "json",
;;   "restart-interval": 5,
;;   "exec": "cat /home/yourusername/.cache/waybar-current-task.json"
;; }
