I am long term ledger user - and having seen beancount recommended recently over ledger, thought I would give it a try.
Thus I have installed beancount with pip3 and in addition downloaded the source code from the mercurial repo with hg clone https://bitbucket.org/blais/beancount and adjusted my emacs config accordingly, such that beancount gets loaded when opening a .beancount file (add-to-list 'load-path ".../beancount/editors/emacs") (require 'beancount) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.beancount$" . beancount-mode)) One of the things that I do frequently (in any emacs mode / programming environment for that matter), is mark a few lines, comment them out with comment-region, and maybe later: uncomment them. I have handy keystrokes for comment-region and uncomment-region. Now in beancount (minor) mode (with org major mode), I can comment out a region, say a transaction from the example file, I mark those lines: 2016-01-04 * "BANK FEES" "Monthly bank fee" Assets:US:BofA:Checking -4.00 USD Expenses:Financial:Fees 4.00 USD and comment-region gives me ;; 2016-01-04 * "BANK FEES" "Monthly bank fee" ;; Assets:US:BofA:Checking -4.00 USD ;; Expenses:Financial:Fees 4.00 USD fine. however when I try to uncomment (mark the lines again, uncomment-region), they are just commented out one further level: ;; ;; 2016-01-04 * "BANK FEES" "Monthly bank fee" ;; ;; Assets:US:BofA:Checking -4.00 USD ;; ;; Expenses:Financial:Fees 4.00 USD which is not what I wanted. is it just me experiencing this behaviour? thanks, -Andreas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
