#!/usr/bin/env runhaskell {- Like ledger's equity command, print a journal entry posting the total balance of all accounts (or the specified account and its subaccounts) in the default journal. An entry like this is useful in the transition to a new journal file, to zero out asset/liability balances in the old file and initialise them in the new one. This way you get correct balances when reporting on either file, and when including both files at once.
