+## run 
+
+Runs a sequnce of hledger commands on the same input file(s), either interactively or as a script.
+
+```flags
+Flags:
+no command-specific flags
+```
+
+The commands will run more quickly than if run individually, because the input files would be parsed only once.
+
+When file names are given to "run", it will read commands from these files, in order.
+
+With no arguments, "run" will start a read-eval-print loop (REPL)
+where you can enter commands interactively. To exit REPL, use "exit"
+or "quit", or send EOF.
+
+Syntax of the commands (either in the file, or in REPL) is intentionally simple:
+- each line is a single hledger command
+- lines that can't be interpreted as hledger commands are printed out as-is
+- empty lines are skipped
+- everything after `#` is considered to be a comment and will be ignored, and will not be printed out
+- `echo <text>` will print out text, even if it could be recognized as a hledger command 
+
+You can use single quotes or double quotes to quote aguments that need quoting.
+
+You can use `#!/usr/bin/env hledger run` in the first line of the file to make it a runnable script.
+
+For example:
+
+```cli
+#!/usr/bin/env hledger run
+echo "List of accounts"
+accounts
+
+echo "Assets"
+balance assets --depth 2
+
+echo "Liabilities"
+balance liabilities --depth 3 --transpose
+```
