Could you explain how you would do that? Currently, I have a Ledger file 
for each year, and each file includes the previous year's data. For 
example, the 2014 file starts with:

    include ../2013/journal.ledger

If I want to archive all the transactions before 2014, I simply replace 
the line above with:

    include  equity.ledger

where equity.ledger is generated by the equity command. But, by doing 
so, I lose the ability to query older data, of course (unless I open the 
older files directly). Is there a better strategy?
