This Emacs library provides a major mode for editing files in the
format used by the ledger
command-line accounting system.
It also provides automated support for some ledger
workflows, such
as reconciling transactions, or running certain reports.
If you choose not to use one of the convenient
packages in MELPA or MELPA Stable, you'll need to
add the directory containing ledger-mode.el
to your load-path
, and
then (require 'ledger-mode)
.
ledger-mode
will automatically associate itself with .ledger
files when
installed as a package. We don't have a full guide to using ledger-mode
,
sorry, but we suggest starting with the general Emacs tricks of
C-h m (describe-mode
) and browsing the ledger
customization
group with M-x customize-group
.
In-buffer checking of formatting and balancing of transactions is
available using flycheck-ledger
.
