How can I have timing default to on with postgresql?

Question

I'm using the psql client on a linux machine, and I always want timing to be on. Is there a config file or setting somewhere to do this? I am currently always starting my session with: \timing

Create a file called ~/.psqlrc and add the line:

\timing

Read the psql man page for more details.
