@sh.itjust.worksI'm trying to set up ledger. I have three accounts from my bank. I exported the transaction history, massaged it a bit, and it seems to work fine. I can't for the life of me figure out how to set initial balances without causing more noise.
I guess I'm just doing this for fun and because I generally like text-based utilities over GUIs. Not sure if I will keep trying. Seems like all the docs, even the get started docs, are for intermediate to advanced users. I can't even get past the "set my fucking balances so they are correct" stage. shit.just.doesn't.work for me.
