You can use bean-query to produce a chronological list of transactions for some subset of accounts and with suitable formatting ("bean-query <filename> select location" works), Emacs' next-error / previous-error could be used to bring the cursor to those in that order. This works. Better even would be to write a script that uses knowledge of the previously failing balance assertion and that print all the intervening ones. That would be a very helpful troubleshooting tool. I think something like this ought to live in the bean-web interface actually. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
