Ledger CLI

Powerful command-line double-entry accounting system using plain-text journal files.

Desktopfree

Ledger is a long-running command-line, plain-text double-entry accounting system with no graphical interface. Users maintain a text file of accounts and transactions and generate balance, register, and other reports directly from it, with no separate database. Optional Python bindings let developers extend it with custom scripts, making it suited to technically comfortable users who want full control over their bookkeeping data.
