tags... ok, i will do that then.

*In case anyone needs in the future this is what I did with an example:*

2021/07/03 * Steak House
     ; :Vacation:
     Expenses:Restaurants  $50.00
     Liabilities:AMEX

2021/07/03 * Theme Park
      ; :Vacation:
     Expenses:Entertainment  $50.00
     Liabilities:AMEX

*This how to query the report:*

ledger foo.dat bal %Vacation
