📋 Features

Complete Entry Stream

Unlike the Transactions tab which focuses solely on postings, the Journal view displays all Beancount directive types in a unified stream:

• Transactions: Standard double-entry entries.
• Notes: Informational text notes attached to accounts.
• Balance Assertions: Reconciliations asserting account balances.
• Other Directives: Events, commodity declarations, document linkages, etc.

Full Management Capabilities

Action buttons are compact, icon-only layouts tailored to each directive type:

• View Details: Click any card/entry to expand it and see full metadata, tags, and file locations.
• Edit (✏️): Open the directive in the transaction modal or editor. You can also right-click to open the file editor directly.
• Save as Snippet (📋): (Transactions only) Save the selected transaction as a template to snippets.beancount under a custom name for easy replication later.
• Delete (❌): Safely delete directives directly from the stream (requires confirmation).
• Live Search: Instantly filters entries as you type in the search bar.

Advanced Filtering

• Date Range: Filter entries by start and end dates.
• Account Filter: Display only entries involving a specific account subtree.
• Entry Type: Toggle checkboxes to show/hide specific directive types (Transactions, Notes, Balances).
