beanahead for future transactions

[Marcus Read]

Hello everyone!

After more than twenty years using the same Excel spreadsheets, I've taken the plunge and moved to beancount.

I love it! And what a great community! A huge thank you to everyone who has offered their work, not least Martin.

The only functionality I wanted and couldn't find was the ability to include future transactions - if nothing else then to make sure there are funds in an account to cover the next month's expenses! I've just published the beanahead package which provides for just this. Basically:

• automatically generates regular transactions.
• provides for ad hoc expected transactions.
• expected transactions are reconciled against imported transactions.
• all functionality accessible via cli.
• comprehensive test suite
• docs on the readme.

Hope it might prove a useful addition to the beancount ecosystem! Critique, suggestions and contributions very much welcomed. (Whilst I have scoured through the repos, I am still fully expecting someone to reply, "why didn't you just use <some-package>?"!)

Thanks again!
Marcus
