Hi all,

I found this works

$ cat test.ledger
2023/1/1 test
Assets 12 AAPL (lot-note) @ 100 USD
Expenses
Income 20 AAPL

$ ledger -f test.ledger print

2023/01/01 test
Assets 12 APPL {100 USD} [2023/01/01] (lot-note) @ 100 USD
Expenses
Income 20 AAPL

while this doesn't work

$ cat test.ledger
2023/1/1 test
Assets (20 * 0.6 APPL) (lot-note) @ 100 USD
Expenses
Income 20 AAPL

$ ledger -f test.ledger print
While parsing file "/home/kikeg/projects/ikegami-journal/test.ledger", line 2:
While parsing posting:
Assets (20 * 0.6 APPL) (lot-note) @ 100 USD
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Error: Unexpected char '(' (Note: inline math requires parentheses)
