I thought I'd try to extract my own 24-h data from arbtt and see how
my factor-analysis fared, but it looks like this can't be done with
arbtt right now: I need categorization of data usage by minute or by
hour, but it seems arbtt only supports extracting data to csv by
chunks of day/month/year

               --for-each=PERIOD       one of: day, month, year

Is there a workaround here? Or does --for-each need to be extended? I
think it would be enough to add 'minute' as a period, since arbtt
isn't generally used more fine-grained than that and I can aggregate
by hour in R if it turns out that there's not enough data for
plotting/regressing by minute over 24h.
