Does anyone on the list who is running a business do "closing entries" for
their business with ledger? (

)

I've been doing them by hand for a couple of years using the data from
ledger. I use "ledger equity expenses" to get a equity entry for my
expenses for the year. Then I change the signs by hand and use "Income
Summary" as the balancing account instead of "Equity:Opening Balances". I
then do the same process with "ledger equity income". It's easy enough to
do (I use emacs) but annoying and I wish it were as simple as "ledger
year-end-entries".

I just discovered the --invert flag, but sadly it does not work with the
"ledger equity" command.

Does anyone have a more efficient way to do this kind of thing with ledger?
