There used to be some fuzzy matching for payees that might have helped, but it wasn't being used properly as far as I know. It might be possible to implement...

Thanks! I'm glad it's working well for you :) I realized I've never describe the payee matching that does happen, so I added some documentation to the README here: https://github.com/egh/ledger-autosync#payee-matching....

I didn't know that was a thing. Interesting. Is there a way that you know to get ledger to report on that, e.g. to run ledger and output the data?...

@qypea Thank you! That seems like something that we could reuse to leverage ledger's payee matching.

I don't in fact use the payee matching, so I'm not sure what the issue could be. @501st-alpha1 implemented that & might have some information.

@etienne-monier I've never tried this, but you could try setting the environment variable LEDGER_DATE_FORMAT="%d/%m/%Y'.

Yes, that's right, `ledger-autosync` parses `.ledgerrc`, but only the `--file` argument. It would be pretty easy (I think) to use the `--date-format` argument in `ledger-autosync` to pass on as `--date-format`...

:) I see no reason why Kevin's implementation can't be extended to pass `--input-date-format` to ledger as well. In fact, it seems to me that if you want `--date-format` set...

I can take a look at it, I just wanted to check in to make sure that it made sense to you!

Thanks for this! It's supposed to strip the BOM, see https://github.com/egh/ledger-autosync/blob/master/ledgerautosync/sync.py#L186. Maybe the BOM is appearing somewhere besides the absolute beginning of the file, or perhaps my code is wrong?...
