\f0\fs28 \cf0 The Ledger tool is fast and simple, but it offers no custom method for\
actually editing the ledger. It assumes you know how to use a text\
editor, and like doing so. There is, at least, an Emacs mode that\
makes editing Ledger's data files much easier.\
\
You are also free to use GnuCash to maintain your ledger, and the\
Ledger program for querying and reporting on the contents of that\
ledger. It takes a little longer to parse the XML data format that\
GnuCash uses, but the end result is identical.\
\
Then again, why would anyone use a Gnome-centric, multi-megabyte\
behemoth to edit their data, and only a one megabyte binary to query\
it?}
