Dear Martin,

I have now reworked large parts of the import documentation:

* Provided an example as illustration, I have found that this helps me a lot even if includes just a fraction of the possiblilities
* Updated the import process using beangulp, generically and for CSV files
* Documented the format of hook functions

Please consider accepting the changes if you are happy with them to make it available to all readers!

Best wishes and a happy new year!
Moritz

    Google Docs was chosen to provide  WYSIWYG editing without the
    barrier of knowing how to navigate GitHub -- i.e. to be accessible
    to non-programmers: <https://beancount.github.io/docs/#about-this-
    documentation <https://beancount.github.io/docs/#about-this-
    documentation>>


Yes
Like I said, either method has drawbacks.
Granted this is an unorthodox method and the final result speaks for itself - how many small projects do you know with 300pp+ docs.
How of course making it everything updated is a lot of manual work.
I think with AI models now maybe having in the repo could benefit from its ability to edit and rework things. I'm sure an AI given a date, all the commits and messages on the list after that date, and the docs could make a pretty good PR to update them.
