Files are included in the order given, so you have to specify the
file with the account definitions first.

This is redundant since ledger looks for ~/.ledgerrc automatically.

You have to declare it with:

commodity $

Using the --strict option

2021-01-01 Thread Oliver Hardy
I have a file ~/.ledgerrc:
--file /home/ohardy/.ledger.dat
--file /home/ohardy/Accounts

The ~/Accounts file consists of entries:
account Assets:Checking
account Liabilities:Credit_Card
account Expenses:Utilities:NatGrid
account Expenses:Rent
etc

I have an alias set up in ~/.aliases:
alias ledger='ledger -i ~/.ledgerrc

Anytime I use the --strict option either as 'ledger bal --strict' or from 
the 'check buffer' option in the toolbar I'm told that every account is 
unknown and that '$' is an unknown commodity.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for any assistance.
