Hi all, I have a puzzling question for you.
Say I have an account that has a bunch of money going in, and a bunch of money going out. I just want to find out how much money went *into* an account over a period of time. I'd like something along the lines of `ledger reg` output, except where the running balance on the right is something like: Say I have something like this: #+begin_src ledger 2012/05/01 Money goes in Assets:Something unrelated $9000.00 Income:Herp derp 2012/05/02 Money goes in Assets:FOO pool $1025.6 Income:Herp derp 2012/05/12 Money comes out Expenses:Costs $600.00 Assets:FOO pool 2012/06/11 Mo money mo problems Assets:FOO pool $2000.00 Income:Herp derp 2012/06/11 Mo money comes out Expenses:Costs $1500.00 Assets:FOO pool 2012/06/21 Paid again Assets:FOO pool $300.00 Income:Herp derp #+end_src ledger If I run this command: $ ledger -f herpderp.ldgr reg "foo pool" 12-May-02 Money goes in Assets:FOO pool $1025.60 $1025.60 12-May-12 Money comes out Assets:FOO pool $-600.00 $425.60 12-Jun-11 Mo money mo problems Assets:FOO pool $2000.00 $2425.60 12-Jun-11 Mo money comes out Assets:FOO pool $-1500.00 $925.60 12-Jun-21 Paid again Assets:FOO pool $300.00 $1225.60 Of course, I get the transaction of things. But I want to see *just* the income. So I can do this: $ ledger -f herpderp.ldgr -d "b>0" reg "foo pool" 12-May-02 Money goes in Assets:FOO pool $1025.60 $1025.60 12-Jun-11 Mo money mo problems Assets:FOO pool $2000.00 $2425.60 12-Jun-21 Paid again Assets:FOO pool $300.00 $1225.60 But what I really want is to have the right hand column not say the state of the account in reality, but the state of the account from within these transactions listed. So what I'd like to see is: $ ledger -f herpderp.ldgr -d "b>0" reg "foo pool" --sumthing 12-May-02 Money goes in Assets:FOO pool $1025.60 $1025.60 12-Jun-11 Mo money mo problems Assets:FOO pool $2000.00 $2025.00 12-Jun-21 Paid again Assets:FOO pool $300.00 $2325.60 I'm not sure what something would be --sumthing, but it would be good to have it. :) Is there an existing trick to pull this off? - Chris
