Martin, I was thinking of that, and I may use alias' as I have a lot of abbreviations. The challenge is that I have my partner's books, my books, and then our joint books. As our finances are gradually being treated as one, I'd like to be able to have Assets -> mine, Assets -> hers, Assets -> ours, Expenses -> mine|hers|ours, etc.
A simple regex substitution works fine, so the ledger print | sed -e '//' | ledger -f - type of solution can work.
