I started to look at the docs (v3) for Python, figuring I might be
able to use that.
As far as feature requests go, I'm not sure I have anything specific
enough, except for maybe 'make -n be just a short-cut for ....'
(except I'm not even sure what .... should be.

I'm not sure, actually.
Partly, yes. Partly no.
More specifically, I just started (this calendar year) as treasurer
for a local non-profit club, and the previous treasurer used Excel
sheets to track everything, but it was only for one account.
However, the members are used to a treasurer's report where expenses
are broken down to the level of "we spent $$$ which was $$ for check
to person X for Y, $$ for check to group Z for ..." and then summaries
of income groups (except for income from dues where we want it broken
out by who it was who paid the dues and when).

I'm starting to think that ledger isn't the right tool in this case,
but then I remembered it was programmable with Python... :-)  so I
hope it is the right tool. Otherwise it's back to a massive spread
sheet with all kinds of sub-totalling cells.

Thanks and sorry for the difficulties in explaining what I'm trying to do.
