Who here uses Hledger for Emacs? What's the best way to get started and more importantly what should I NOT try to do? #emacs #hledger

Thanks to your requests, a number of problems in the #hledger lsp server have been solved. The new version is much better. Thank you!

A nice, short intro to #plainTextAccounting with :hledger: #hledger:

AFAIK, simbuto is still the only budgeting/forecasting tool that allows specifying uncertainty ranges for days and amounts and does a monte-carlo simulation to determine the realistic highs and lows. I am missing this functionality very much in my current #hledger setup, which I have otherwise […]
I'm trying to learn #PlainTextAccounting to help me keep track of my father's estate (using #HLedger) since I was named executor.
But, https://plaintextaccounting.org/FAQ links to an "Accounting Basics" URL that (has changed? and) not longer has the information, but is rather a missing anchor […]
I just released 1.1.0 of #HLedger Formatter, my VSCode extension adding autocomplete and autobalancing. Autocomplete scans all "!included" files in your workspace to build up a catalog of suggestions based on categories you actually use. #plaintextaccounting #OpenSource

Spending summary artifact created from HLedger data using MCP
Adding an HLedger entry from a receipt pdf
I've found #plaintextaccounting with #hledger to be an absolutely _perfect_ match for MCP's. Attached are two neat examples.
1) Creating a visualization from the data within the journals.
2) Easily adding new entries from a receipt. Just drag the PDF in and... 🎉

I just donated to Simon Michael because #hledger literally keeps me financially sane.
@simonmic just dropped a fresh :hledger: #hledger 1.50 release, and it's PACKED with beautiful stuff! 🤩

Had to switch back to base C++ #nix from #lix because lix still has an annoying builitins.fetchTarball bug¹ that prevents using tarballs that just contain a bunch of files without an extra single directory at the top level. (As you know, tarballs only EVER contain a top-level directory and never […]
I've been experimenting with doing plain text accounts using #ledger-mode in #Emacs to get a better handle on my finances, particularly in relation to share investments. On my blog I have posted a simple walk-through demonstrating what I have learned with regards to using these tools to help […]
hledger chart of accounting loss over time from 2017 to 2025, with green and blue line summing up to the total line showing a steady increase of ca. 1€/year.
Another super interesting chart for me is this one: accounting loss over time, i.e. things that slip through the radar.
I fill my #hledger journal very thoroughly with ~1500 txns/year that I sort and tag meticulously, including all things cash (this is where […]

A ridiculous pile of receipts covering a square meter of floor, next to a big shopping bag stuffed full of more receipts
Yay, I finally caught up with :hledger: #hledger #plainTextAccounting 2024! 🥳
In total it took me ~50h to import/write/reconcile/sort/... these ~1500 transactions, so in theory 1h/week should suffice.
I do it very thoroughly since 2017 and enter even the […]

I am trying to set up my family expenses with #hledger.
Surprisingly ChatGPT, Claude, and Windsurf got the import rules so wrong.
After two weeks of using #PlainTextAccounting (double-entry bookkeeping) w/ #hledger, I couldn't be happier. (h/t: @noufalibrahim)
