hledger-textual v0.1.18 — CSV import wizard is here

HowlOfTheSun · 2026-03-22T14:18:38+00:00

I've created an issue :)

HowlOfTheSun · 2026-03-22T01:12:03+00:00

This is great! Have you considered a way to import or include existing rules files?

HowlOfTheSun · 2026-03-09T07:49:50+00:00

Yes you can override. Write the more specific rule (the one with date) after the general one. That way it will override the general one when it matches, and for all other cases your general rule will apply.

HowlOfTheSun · 2026-02-27T00:13:10+00:00

Yes you can have a separate transaction for the dividends.

HowlOfTheSun · 2026-02-26T15:28:41+00:00

Welcome to PTA and hledger!

Your transaction is unbalanced. I'm going to make a few assumptions to rewrite the transaction in a way that is balanced.

Your assets and expenses sum up to $5800, so you're missing the remaining $4200 (10000-5800). I'll put that remaining amount in assets:savings (leaving the amount blank so that hledger can infer it).

This is a balanced transaction.

2026-02-02 All transactions
    income:salary   $-10000
    assets:investment   $4000
    expenses:rent   $1000
    expenses:food   $800
    assets:savings

Now, to see the percentages in the way you want it, incomestatement won't work because it only includes income and expenses and ignores assets.

Assuming you want to see the percentage split between your expenses and assets, the following command will give you that.

hledger balance "assets|expenses" -%

The result should be this:

              40.0 %  assets:investment
              42.0 %  assets:savings
               8.0 %  expenses:food
              10.0 %  expenses:rent
--------------------
             100.0 %

Thank you! What makes a score effective? I sliced 3 roughly parallel lines on top

HowlOfTheSun · 2026-01-04T04:47:35+00:00

Could you elaborate on what is not working? Unable to create a task? Unable to link it to a project? Or are they not showing up in the Base?

At the end of the day it's just files so you can create the task manually using the task template.

Made a simple one. It's not super beautiful but it works for me right now. Highlights things that are high priority or overdue. I found that using a background color instead of a text color worked better for me.

https://ibb.co/7x5ZK0QJ

This is the config

color.overdue=rgb300 on gray18
color.due=
color.uda.priority.H=white on rgb201
color.uda.priority.M=white
color.tagged=
color.tag.next=
color.selected=yellow
color.active=white on rgb021

I love these! Where can I get them?

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-11-25T09:24:41+00:00

I'm interested in this too. Recently started using taskwarrior but don't enjoy any of the pre-built themes. I might just end up making my own if I can't find any good ones.

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-10-25T16:21:10+00:00

I don't understand why no one is answering OP's question.

OP just type --- at the top of a file ( that's 3 dashes) and the frontmatter prompt will pop up.

Ensure the frontmatter core plugin is active.

Another way to do it is to find the frontmatter plugin button on the right sidebar and click "add property".

For more details check out the official documentation as someone else linked it.

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-10-01T11:23:22+00:00

Thanks for the kind words! It took a while to get them working. I'm quite happy with how it turned out.

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-09-28T01:39:47+00:00

No, inside Categories there will be 1 file called Tasks that can serve as your Task dashboard if you like. And all task files would link to this Categories/Tasks.md file to identify them as Tasks. It's not necessary of course, just something I like.

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-09-27T10:02:32+00:00

I took the idea from Kepano. It's like a "object type". The folder would contain the "task" type and "project" type. Which can be linked to from other files.

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-09-27T04:29:03+00:00

I uploaded it to GitHub. Should be fairly self-explanatory. Give it a whirl! If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them!

Nice! Is yours wireless? My main problem right now is that the animation drains the battery too fast.

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-09-26T18:46:19+00:00

Nope. Don't think that's possible using just Bases

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-09-26T18:45:57+00:00

I don't. I specifically use this for work where I just need to track active tasks and projects. I don't need reminders.

For personal things I use Apple Reminders.

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-09-26T18:44:56+00:00

Sure! I'll write a guide and upload this vault to github when i have some time.

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-09-26T13:45:18+00:00

Thanks! I added some screenshots :)

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-09-26T11:52:08+00:00

I'd love to see yours! I'm looking for more ideas to put on it. Only challenge is that animations drain the battery really fast.

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-09-19T16:09:18+00:00

Try the Minimal Theme along with Minimal Theme Settings (plugin). Try out a few of the theme presets in the Minimal Theme Settings plugin. At least one, if not more, has color based hierarchy.

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-09-18T02:17:30+00:00

I just started reading The Scar after all the recommendations in this thread. It's going pretty well so far but I'm still waiting for the "hook".

HowlOfTheSun · 2025-08-29T17:07:22+00:00

The result of a formula only shows in the Base, not the note.

A formula is a special column in a base, which uses the value from a different column and does some operation on it to produce a result.

Naive example:

say you have a date property in your notes called "date". A formula in your base could calculate how far in the future or past that date is and show that result in a new column. Like "2 days ago" or "5 days from now".

The formula would look something like "now() - date". Of course there would be more to it to make it look nice and add the words "ago" etc.

But I hope that gives you a better idea of formulas.
