Simon Michael dcdb032d96 add: rewrite using wizards and make it more robust
The code is now much more manageable, faciliating further
improvements. Completion now works at all prompts, and
will insert the default value if the input area is empty.
Account and amount defaults are more robust and useful
in various situations. There might be a slight regression
with default commodity handling.

hledger

command-line and web accounting tools

hledger is a computer program for easily tracking money, time, or other commodities, inspired by and compatible with ledger.

hledger is first a command-line tool, but also provides a web interface. Though limited in features, it is lightweight, usable and reliable. For some, it is a simpler, less distracting, less costly alternative to Quicken or GnuCash. It is free software available under the GNU General Public License.

hledger aims to help both computer experts and regular folks gain clarity in their finances and time management, but currently it is a little more suited to techies. I use it every day to:

  • track spending and income
  • see time reports by day/week/month/project
  • get accurate numbers for client billing and tax filing
  • track invoices

Read the docs to learn more, including how we are different from ledger, and get started tracking your numbers!
