   beancount: Double-Entry Accounting from Text Files
========================================================

**NOTE**: This is a fork of https://bitbucket.org/blais/beancount in order to
maintain a stable, supported version of beancount for IO Cooperative accounting
purposes. It will usually not be up-to-date with the latest upstream
development. Please follow the upstream project for all uses of beancount
outside of IO Cooperative.

Description
===========

A double-entry bookkeeping computer language that lets you define financial
transaction records in a text file, read them in memory, generate a variety of
reports from them, and provides a web interface.


Documentation
=============

Documentation lives on Google Docs. You can find an index to all the available
documents here:

  http://furius.ca/beancount/doc/index

There's a `mailing-list dedicated to Beancount
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/beancount>`_, please post questions
there, so others can share in the responses. More general discussions about
command-line accounting also occur on the `Ledger mailing-list
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ledger-cli>`_ so you might be
interested in that group as well.


Download & Installation
=======================

You can obtain the source code from a Mercurial repository on my server or from
BitBucket:
