New issue 161: Unicode support https://bitbucket.org/blais/beancount/issues/161/unicode-support
rutsky: I believe this issue arised [several](https://groups.google.com/d/msg/ledger-cli/C6GOOj8kGtQ/6pGThn3DRTIJ) [times](https://groups.google.com/d/msg/beancount/vVzzfE3m_ow/usM6Ft6-zi0J), but haven't found ticket for it with information about current status and plans. For example, I want to have account name with Unicode characters in it. As I see beancount currently doesn't support that: ``` $ cat test2.beancount option "operating_currency" "RUB" 2014-01-31 open Assets:Imbalance-RUB RUB 2014-01-31 open Assets:Orphan-RUB RUB 2014-01-31 open Assets:Активы RUB $ bean-check test2.beancount /home/bob/stuff/money/test2.beancount:5: Invalid token: 'Assets:Активы' $ pip list | grep beancount beancount (2.0b15) ``` I'm trying to switch from Gnucash to Beancount (with [gnucash-to-beancount](https://github.com/henriquebastos/gnucash-to-beancount) converter tool), and limiting account names to ASCII is a showstopper for me. What is the current status of Unicode support (in account names and other entities)? What are the plans to support Unicode everywhere? Maybe there are known workarounds? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
