This works for a while: C 1. BTC = 100,000,000 SAT C 1.00 bit = 100 SAT C 1. BTC = 1,000,000.00 bit But then the ledger-cli made a mess of commodity conversions. Even if I use the option --exchange BRL if I put this equivalence lines the ledger-cli just ignores the conversion

Thank you guys. I could manage that with this: commodity BTC note Bitcoin format 1,000. BTC commodity bit format 1,000.00 bit commodity SAT note Satoshis format 1,000 SAT C 1. BTC = 100,000,000 SAT C 1.00 bit = 100 SAT C 1. BTC = 1,000,000.00 bit On Sunday,

You should be able to use commodity equivalencies to solve this problem to a degree, but it won't be automatic based on the magnitude in context, only whatever you set as the exchange, I think. https://www.ledger-cli.org/3.0/doc/ledger3.html#Commodity-equivalences On Sunday, September 12, 2021

You MIGHT use a commodity. For example, M_USD for millions of dollars ... that's not a problem I face :-) ... and I realize it's not a direct correlation to your question but maybe it's useful in some context On Sat, Sep 11, 2021, 19:48 Martin Michlmayr wrote: > Not that I'm aware of, but I'm

When working with cryptocurrencies, something like that: 203,320,244,020,398,298 DOGE can be very common. It would be useful an option like --shorten-huge-numbers and change this to: 203,320.24T DOGE Or maybe the solution could be create another commodity and use the C directive as you said
