ledger-mode

===========

This Emacs library provides a major mode for editing files in the

format used by the [`ledger`](https://github.com/ledger/ledger)

command-line accounting system.

It also provides automated support for some `ledger` workflows, such

as reconciling transactions, or running certain reports.

Installation

=============

If you choose not to use one of the convenient

packages in [MELPA][melpa] or [MELPA Stable][melpa-stable], you'll need to

add the directory containing `ledger-mode.el` to your `load-path`, and

then `(require 'ledger-mode)`.

Configuring completion

======================

Earlier `ledger-mode` versions had an always-on `TAB` completion system,

but now the code uses the standard Emacs `completion-at-point` system

for compatibility with all completion UIs, e.g. `company` or `helm`.

See the "Adding Transactions" section of the ledger-mode Info manual for

more information.

Getting started

===============

`ledger-mode` will automatically associate itself with `.ledger` files when

installed as a package. `ledger-mode` includes documentation in info format,

accessible through Emacs with C-h i. The info chapter includes a

quick demo as well as more extensive documentation.

Related packages

================

In-buffer checking of formatting and balancing of transactions is available

built-in for Emacs version 26 and later using `flymake-mode`. For flycheck users

(and users of Emacs 25 and earlier), [`flycheck-ledger`][flycheck-ledger] is

available.
