Try the "ledger period EXPR" command, which will tell you how Ledger
interprets any given date expression. Not sure if this debugging subcommand is
documented...

How do period expressions work with --begin and --end?

[Marcin Borkowski]

Hi all,

I was wondering how things like "this month" work with --begin and
--end.  I did some experiments, and it looks like you can give "this
month" or "last month" as an argument to --begin and --end, and their
meaning is "the first day of that period".  So:

--begin "last month" --end "this month"

is apparently equivalent to

--period "last month"

Is that correct?  Also, is it documented somewhere?

Best,
