I've ended up using asserts as metadata in comments, and then wrote a wrapper to parse the assert (account, value), run ledger and parse what it thinks the balance is, and warn me when they are not equal. This has worked well as I have a ledger file per quarter for each of income & expenses, so running ledger against each individual file ensures I don't have issues with increasing balances per quarter. Ugly but it's met my need for beginning refactoring :) Thanks again for your responses. Regards, Chris -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ledger" group.
