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
|

|

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}).
