Envelope generator / recurring transactions

[TomK32]

I just finished 70 lines of ruby with a simple cli to generate recurring transaction, I'd like to think of it as an envelope generator. Now ruby won't be much use for hledger so I'm considering to extend the add command to ask for recurrence. Any comments?

Nice. If you named this hledger-recur or something (I don't quite get the "envelope" reference), it would appear in the commands list.

Does it belong as part of the add command ? If you think so, mock up the command-line help and a transcript of usage.

I had something like this but never used it. I find it easier to copy/paste/modify in an editor, either when needed or batched up and saved ahead of time.
