|        multiple single-commodity postings, for valid journal output. | ||||
|        Normally, the journal entry's explicit or implicit amount style is pre- | ||||
|        served.   Ie when an amount is omitted in the journal, it will be omit- | ||||
|        ted in the output.  You can use the  -x/--explicit  flag  to  make  all | ||||
|        amounts explicit, which can be useful for troubleshooting or for making | ||||
|        your journal more readable and robust against data entry errors.  Note, | ||||
|        -x  will  cause postings with a multi-commodity amount (these can arise | ||||
|        when a multi-commodity transaction has  an  implicit  amount)  will  be | ||||
|        split  into  multiple single-commodity postings, for valid journal out- | ||||
|        put. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|        With -B/--cost, amounts with transaction prices are converted  to  cost | ||||
|        (using the transaction price). | ||||
|        using that price. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|        With  -m/--match and a STR argument, print will show at most one trans- | ||||
|        action: the one one whose description is most similar to  STR,  and  is | ||||
|        most  recent.  STR should contain at least two characters.  If there is | ||||
|        no similar-enough match, no transaction will be shown. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|        With --new, for each FILE being read, hledger reads (and writes) a spe- | ||||
|        cial  .FILE.seen  file  in  the  same  directory, containing the latest | ||||
|        transaction date(s) that were seen last time FILE was read.  When  this | ||||
|        file is found, only transactions with newer dates (and new transactions | ||||
|        on  the  latest  date)  are  printed.   This  is  useful  for  ignoring | ||||

|               # shows transactions added since last print --new on this file | ||||

|        It assumes that only  same-or-newer-dated  transactions  are  added  to | ||||
|        FILE, and that the order of same-date transactions remains stable. | ||||
|

|        The  print  command  also  supports  output destination and CSV output. | ||||
