Hey all, in Ledger and hledger journals you can set eg a posting's date by writing ; [DATE], a square-bracketed date anywhere in the comment.
I believe in both you can also write ; date:DATE or similar, a tag/metadata with that name anywhere in the comment. More details at eg http://hledger.org/journal.html#posting-dates <http://hledger.org/journal.html#posting-dates>. My understanding is the bracketed syntax came first. We are discussing some ambiguities in parsing that arise, at https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/778 <https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/778> . And basically, awjchen and I are wondering if anybody uses bracketed dates are used, or how you'd feel if they were dropped, or what thoughts you might have about issues raised on #778.
