How to only display subtotals

[Marcin Borkowski]

Hi all,

Assume I use this account structure:

Expenses:Hobbies:Books
Expenses:Hobbies:Music
Expenses:Life:Food
Expenses:Life:Phone

What do I tell the `bal` report to display both `Expenses:Life:Food` and
`Expenses:Life:Phone`, but only the subtotal for `Expenses:Hobbies`
(without separating `Books` and `Music`)?

TIA,

I don't think you can do this in a single query.

Thanks, I was afraid so. Well, since I'm writing a program to analyze
ledger's output, I'll just output all the accounts and filter them on
the other side.

Best,
