I am a new user, trying to figure out ledger. Is ledger case sensitive when
it comes to account names? Consider this example file
2018-01-01 * transaction1
Expenses:Groceries 10 USD
Assets:Income
2018-01-01 * transaction2
Expenses:Groceries 10 USD
Assets:Income
2018-01-01 * transaction3
Expenses:groceries 10 USD
Assets:Income
Transaction1 and Transaction2 has "Groceries" while Transaction3 has
"groceries". When I look at the balance, ledger treats them as separate
accounts
ledger -f example.ledger bal expenses:groceries
30 USD Expenses
20 USD Groceries
10 USD groceries
--------------------
30 USD
But when I look at the register, it appears that it does a case insensitive
match
ledger -f example.ledger reg expenses:groceries
18-Jan-01 transaction1 Expenses:Groceries
10 USD 10 USD
18-Jan-01 transaction2 Expenses:Groceries
10 USD 20 USD
18-Jan-01 transaction3 Expenses:groceries
10 USD 30 USD
>From this, I gather that when I am adding transactions to ledger I need to
pay attention to case, right?
