You could fetch the older version of the beancount emacs plugin out of the
git history and use it instead. For the non software engineer one way to do
that is to browse to the file on github, and click "blame" (line by line
history). You can see the comment about major mode was updated here
<http://github.com/beancount/beancount/commit/0c6a8863e5080a6b01d6ae31f92c67c3ed940f11>,
and we've found the point where that changed. Then we can take that commit
hash 0c6a8863e5080a6b01d6ae31f92c67c3ed940f11, and get the parent commit by
suffixing it with ^ or ~1. Leads us here:
https://github.com/beancount/beancount/blob/0c6a8863e5080a6b01d6ae31f92c67c3ed940f11%5E/editors/emacs/beancount.el.
You can download that and you'll have the emacs plugin as it used to be.
