+Reckon automagically converts CSV files for use with the command-line
+accounting tool Ledger. It also helps you to select the correct accounts
+associated with the CSV data using Bayesian machine learning.
+
+First, login to your bank and export your transaction data as a CSV file.
+
+To see how the CSV parses:
+ reckon -f bank.csv -p
+
+To convert to ledger format and label everything, do:
+ reckon -f bank.csv -o output.dat
+
+To have reckon learn from an existing ledger file, provide it with -l:
+ reckon -f bank.csv -l 2010.dat -o output.dat
