Documentation for the fixed directive.
Based on conversation with johnw on IRC, I believe this text properly documents the intended feature of the fixed directive.

A fixed block is used to set fixated prices (@pxref{Fixated prices}) for a series of
|
||||
transactions. It's purely a typing saver, for use when entering many
|
||||
transactions with fixated prices.
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, the following:
|
||||
@smallexample
|
||||
fixed CAD $0.90
|
||||
2012-04-10 Lunch in Canada
|
||||
Assets:Wallet -15.50 CAD
|
||||
Expenses:Food 15.50 CAD
|
||||
|
||||
2012-04-11 Second day Dinner in Canada
|
||||
Assets:Wallet -25.75 CAD
|
||||
Expenses:Food 25.75 CAD
|
||||
endfixed
|
||||
@end smallexample
|
||||
is equivalent to this:
|
||||
@smallexample
|
||||
2012-04-10 Lunch in Canada
|
||||
Assets:Wallet -15.50 CAD @{=$0.90@}
|
||||
Expenses:Food 15.50 CAD @{=$0.90@}
|
||||
|
||||
2012-04-11 Second day Dinner in Canada
|
||||
Assets:Wallet -25.75 CAD @{=$0.90@}
|
||||
Expenses:Food 25.75 CAD @{=$0.90@}
|
||||
@end smallexample
|
||||
|
||||
Note that ending a @samp{fixed} is done differently than other
|
||||
directives, as @samp{fixed} is closed with an @samp{endfixed} (i.e.,
|
||||
there is @strong{no space} between @samp{end} and @samp{fixed}).
|
||||
|
||||
@item include
|
||||
@c instance_t::include_directive in textual.cc
|
||||
Include the stated file as if it were part of the current file.
