# rusty_time-ctl (`rtimec`)
The control client for `rtimed` — the chronyc analog.
```sh
rtimec tracking # offset, frequency, root distance
rtimec sources # per-source state and selection
rtimec clients # who has been asking, most recent first
rtimec ntsdata # key ring and cookie state
```
Speaks the typed ops in `rusty_time-api` over a local control socket — a Unix socket, or a
named pipe on Windows. `--json` prints the wire form unchanged, so anything a human can
read here a script can consume.
## Part of rusty_time
[rusty_time](https://github.com/remade-with-rust/rusty_time) is chrony, remade with Rust:
a pure-Rust NTPv4 + NTS time client and server for Linux, macOS, Windows and wasm, with
no C toolchain anywhere in the build.
Performance claims live in [corpus/LEDGER.md](https://github.com/remade-with-rust/rusty_time/blob/main/corpus/LEDGER.md)
with the run that produced them. Anything not in the ledger is not claimed.
