Hello,
Currently I am using nano to make my ledger entries and it takes a very

I have it setup with ido-completing-read which allows you to type any
subset of characters an account name (in order). It makes it really super
easy to type account names, while being generally sloppy with typing.
Something worth looking into.

I think the real key here is using an editor slightly more capable than
nano. emacs or vi.

Hi Kevin,
for starters have a look at the xact Ledger command
http://ledger-cli.org/3.0/doc/ledger3.html#xact
Since I have no knowledge about the Ledger Emacs integration, I can only
point to the documentation
http://ledger-cli.org/3.0/doc/ledger3.html#Emacs-org-Mode
Cheers,
Alexis
