Show the hledger user manual in one of several formats, optionally
positioned at a given TOPIC (if possible).
TOPIC is any heading in the manual, or a heading prefix, case
insensitive. Eg: commands, print, forecast, "auto postings", journal,
amount.
Show the hledger user manual with info, man, or a pager if possible.
With a TOPIC argument, open it at that topic if possible. TOPIC can be
any heading in the manual, or a heading prefix, case insensitive. Eg:
commands, print, forecast, journal, amount, "auto postings".
_FLAGS
This command shows the user manual built in to this hledger version. It
can be useful if the correct version of the hledger manual, or the usual
viewing tools, are not installed on your system.
This command shows the hledger manual built in to your hledger version.
It can be useful when offline, or when you prefer the terminal to a web
browser, or when the appropriate hledger manual or viewing tools are not
installed on your system.
By default it uses the best viewer it can find in $PATH, in this order:
info, man, $PAGER (unless a topic is specified), less, or stdout. When
run non-interactively, it always uses stdout. Or you can select a
particular viewer with the -i (info), -m (man), or -p (pager) flags.
By default it chooses the best viewer found in $PATH, preferring info
since the hledger manual is large. You can select a particular viewer
with the -i, -m, or -p flags.
