+## Installation into beancount repository 
+
+As an alternative to the default install method, you can copy the files of this plugin directly into the folder of your beancount file. Use the beancount option `insert_pythonpath` in this case. To access a subfolder, prepend it and separate with a dot, like for Python modules.
+
+This is how the setup of the author currently looks like:
+
+```shell
+$ grep pythonpath main.beancount 
+option "insert_pythonpath" "True"
+$ grep repete main.beancount 
+plugin "plugins.beancount-repete"
+$ cd plugins
+$ git submodule add https://github.com/jpluscplusm/beancount-repete
