There is some added flexibility to help with keeping time log data
in the same file as your notes, todo lists, etc.:
- Lines beginning with `#` or `;`, and blank lines, are ignored.
- Blank lines and lines beginning with `#` or `;` are ignored.
- Before the first date line, lines beginning with `*` are ignored.
From the first date line onward, a sequence of `*`'s followed by a space
at beginning of lines (ie, the headline prefix used by Emacs Org mode) is ignored.
This means the time log can be kept under an Org headline,
and date lines or time transaction lines can be Org headlines.
- Lines not ending with a double-space and amount are
parsed as transactions with zero amount.
(Most hledger reports hide these by default; add -E to see them.)
- One or more stars (`*`) followed by a space, at the start of a line, is ignored.
So date lines or time transaction lines can also be Org-mode headlines.
- All Org-mode headlines before the first date line are ignored.
