has moved to a plugin. I wasn't going to make any major changes before
the next release, but this was required to clean up the loader API, so I

in both Beancount and Ledger (with specific examples),

Hi all,
In current hledger, a balance assertion like

removing parts bit by bit until the problem stops manifesting, and only
