-\f0\fs28 \cf0 These options affect how commodity values are displayed:\
-\
-@option\{--price-db FILE\} sets the file that is used for recording\
-downloaded commodity prices. It is always read on startup, to\
-determine historical prices. Other settings can be placed in this\
-file manually, to prevent downloading quotes for a specific, for\
-example. This is done by adding a line like the following:\
-\
-@example\
-; Don't download quotes for the dollar, or timelog values\
-N $\
-N h\
-@end example\
-\
-@option\{--price-exp MINS\} (@option\{-L MINS\}) sets the expected\
-freshness of price quotes, in minutes. That is, if the last known\
-quote for any commodity is older than this value---and if\
-@option\{--download\} is being used---then the Internet will be\
-consulted again for a newer price. Otherwise, the old price is still\
-considered to be fresh enough.\
-\
-@option\{--download\} (@option\{-Q\}) causes quotes to be automagically\
-downloaded, as needed, by running a script named @command\{getquote\}\
-and expecting that script to return a value understood by ledger. A\
-sample implementation of a @command\{getquote\} script, implemented in\
-Perl, is provided in the distribution. Downloaded quote price are\
-then appended to the price database, usually specified using the\
-environment variable @env\{LEDGER_PRICE_DB\}.\
-\
-There are several different ways that ledger can report the totals it\
-displays. The most flexible way to adjust them is by using value\
-expressions, and the @option\{-t\} and @option\{-T\} options. However,\
-there are also several ``default'' reports, which will satisfy most\
-users basic reporting needs:\
-\
-@table @code\
-@item -O, --quantity\
-Reports commodity totals (this is the default)\
-\
-@item -B, --basis\
-Reports the cost basis for all postings.\
-\
-@item -V, --market\
-Reports the last known market value for all commodities.\
-\
-@item -G --gain\
-Reports the net gain/loss for all commodities in the report that have\
-a price history.\
