Hi, I'm new to beancount/fava but very impressed with it so far. I've set up a few months of data to see how things work, and one items I'd like to track is monthly cash available after expenses and mortgage payments. Since mortgage payments are partially paying down a liability (and thus, a chunk isn't really an 'expense' per se), it's not really clear to me the best way to do this.
I had been thinking that perhaps I should write a fava extension that calculates this figure, but as I'm writing this it occurs to me that maybe there's a way to do it by setting the accounts up differently. Any thoughts out there for me? Also, if I do go down the road of a fava extension, I'd like the extension to be able to use values typed into the time filter. Can anyone point me to sample code that does this? My quick tour of the fava code didn't reveal any obvious suspects, but I have yet to really understand how it all fits together.
