1. Import from gnucash, I think that's only available for ledger and only
for an older version? Is the syntax incompatible? I've got 5+ years of
records in gnucash that I'd want to keep.
There's also eg gnucash2ledger.py, see
http://plaintextaccounting.org/#data-importconversion
2. Mobile entry (from a phone). I'm currently using a simple
budget/accounting type app to note down transactions and then manually
copying it whenever I'm at my computer. Or I'll just say "I'll remember to
do this when I get back to the office" only to forget and have to
reconstruct my records from receipts. I think hledger and beancount have
web UIs, are those usable on phones when out and about (I do have a home
raspberry pi which can host it)?
I've heard of a few people doing this. I don't think hledger-web was
usable on small screens before, but hledger-web 1.0 should be.
Another option would be to use some native phone app with a good data
entry UI and CSV export. iXpenseit Pro was one I used in the past.
3. Sync of the ledger - I've read comments about using dropbox (simple
enough), but what about automatic git-based sync (with merges etc.)? Are
there tools to accomodate that?
None that have been shared, as far as I remember.
4. Editing/entry - I've seen emacs recommended, but I'm a vim guy myself.
Which of the three options has auto-completion of accounts/categories for
vim users (or should I just be using it from the shell)?
Thanks, sorry for the questions which I'm sure most here would have heard
many times before, but I can't seem to find reliable answers to the above.
I see vim modes at http://plaintextaccounting.org/#editor-support which
I would think provide that for all three.
