Randomly generates syntactically valid Ledger data from a seed. Used by the GenerateTests harness. > 2. 'template' as a precommand Shows the insertion template that a "draft" or "xact" sub-command generates. This is a debugging command. > 3. --generated Whether auto-generated postings (such as those from automated transactions) should be included in the report, in cases where you normally wouldn't want them. > 4. --forecast-while Continue forcasting while the value expression remains true. > 5. --forecast-years Forecast at most X years in the future. > 6. --meta In the register report, also show the given metadata field in the first column. This is just a quicker alternative to using --prepend-format. > 7. --only See earlier posting. This is a postings predicate that applies after certain transforms have been executed, such as periodic gathering. > 8. --no-rounding Don't output <Rounding> postings. Note that this will cause the running total to often not add up! It's main use is for -j and -J reports. > 9. --raw In the print report, show transactions using the exact same syntax as specified by the user in their data file. Don't do any massaging or interpreting. Can be useful for minor cleanups, like just aligning amounts. > 10. --seed Used by the generate command above. > 11. --truncate (valid arguments are "leading" "middle" and "trailing") Indicates how truncation should happen when the contents of columns exceed their width. The default is smarter than any of these three, as it considers sub-names within the account name (that style is called "abbreviate", but apparently you can't set it using the --truncate option).
