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 the start of any heading (but not the middle).
|
|
It is case insensitive.
|
|
|
|
Some examples:
|
|
`commands`, `print`, `forecast`, `"auto postings"`, `"commodity column"`.
|
|
|
|
_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.
|
|
|
|
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.
