With -X COMM, all values are computed in terms of COMM, regardless.
With -V, only secondary commodities will ever be computed, never
primaries. Further, if a secondary commodities has an associated price,
the valuation is done in terms of that price's commodity.
The different namespaces are:
Function Value expression functions, which receive a "context"
Option Command-line options
Precommand Commands which are invoked before reading the journal
Command Commands which are invoked after reading the journal
Directive Directives that occur at column 0 in a data file
This greatly eases the ability for Python uses to add intercept hooks to
change how the basic Ledger module functions. An example of what should
be possible soon:
import ledger
def my_foo_handler(value):
print "--foo received:", value
ledger.add_handler(ledger.Option, "foo=", my_foo_handler)
These strings are now collected automagically in the file po/ledger.pot.
If you'd like to produce a translation, just run this command after
building Ledger:
msginit -l LOCALE -o LANG.po -i po/ledger.pot
Where LOCALE is a string like de or en_GB, and LANG is a short
descriptive word for your language.
Then send me this .po file so I can commit it to the Ledger sources
(alternatively, you could maintain the file in a fork on GitHub), and
setup the build script to format and install your new message catalog
during a "make install".
