Thanks, John. There was an error in my cut&paste, the closing slash
was in the input file.
I made up the following simple test file (test.dat):
= account= /Expense/
Liabilities .10
2011/07/31 Dummmy
Expenses 100.00
Assets
When I run "ledger -f test.dat bal
I get the following:
-100 Assets
100 Expenses
--------------------
0
Is there an option I need to specify to get it to calculate and/or
display automatic transactions
