<string>The @command{xact} commands simplifies the creation of new transactions.
It works on the principle that 80% of all postings are variants of
earlier postings. Here's how it works:
Say you currently have this posting in your ledger file:
@smallexample
2004/03/15 * Viva Italiano
Expenses:Food $12.45
Expenses:Tips $2.55
Liabilities:MasterCard $-15.00
@end smallexample
Now it's @samp{2004/4/9}, and you've just eating at @samp{Viva
Italiano} again. The epost amounts are different, but the overall
form is the same. With the @command{xact} command you can type:
@example
ledger xact 2004/4/9 viva food 11 tips 2.50
@end example
This produces the following output:
@smallexample
2004/04/09 Viva Italiano
Expenses:Food $11.00
Expenses:Tips $2.50
Liabilities:MasterCard $-13.50
@end smallexample
It works by finding a past posting matching the regular expression
@samp{viva}, and assuming that any accounts or amounts specified will
be similar to that earlier posting. If Ledger does not succeed in
generating a new transaction, an error is printed and the exit code is set
to @samp{1}.
There is a shell script in the distribution's @file{scripts} directory
called @file{xact}, which simplifies the task of adding a new transaction
to your ledger. It launches @command{vi} to confirm that the transaction
looks appropriate.
Here are a few more examples of the @command{xact} command, assuming
the above journal transaction:
@example
ledger xact 4/9 viva 11.50
ledger xact 4/9 viva 11.50 checking # (from `checking')
ledger xact 4/9 viva food 11.50 tips 8
ledger xact 4/9 viva food 11.50 tips 8 cash
ledger xact 4/9 viva food $11.50 tips $8 cash
ledger xact 4/9 viva dining "DM 11.50"
@end example</string>
