2010-02-12 03:57:40 +03:00

[announcement ](http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.finance.ledger.hledger/193 )
2010-09-06 02:30:20 +04:00
* price history support (first cut): P directives now work,
though differently from c++ ledger. Each posting amount takes its
fixed unit price from the price history (or
@) when available. This is simple and useful for things like
foreign currency expenses (but not investment tracking). Like
ledger, balance and register don't show amount prices any more, and
don't separate differently-priced amounts. Unlike ledger, print
shows all amount prices, and supports -B.
* --effective option, will use transactions' effective dates if
any
* convert: new rules file format, find/create rules file
automatically, more robust parsing, more useful --debug output
* print: always sort by date, fix long account name truncation,
align amounts, show end of line comments, show all amounts for
clarity (don't elide the final balancing amount)
* ui: use vty 4, fixes non-ascii and gnome terminal problems
(issues \#3, \#4)
* web: allow data entry, react to data file changes, better
layout, help links, remove histogram command and filter fields for
now, fix bad localhost redirect, filter form did not work in eg
firefox (issue \#7), reset link did not work in all browsers
* parsing: require whitespace between date and status code, allow
(and ignore) a time in price records, better error messages,
non-zero exit code on parse failure
* display non-ascii error messages properly (issue \#5)
* fix an arithmetic bug that occasionally rejected valid
transactions
2009-12-05 03:08:51 +03:00
* fix a regex bug in showtree
* don't break if HOME is undefined
* --debug now implies --verbose
2010-09-06 02:30:20 +04:00
* add functional tests like ledger's, use test-framework for
speedy running, release shelltestrunner as a separate package
2009-12-12 11:42:03 +03:00
* many hlint cleanups (Marko Kocić)
2009-12-12 06:04:55 +03:00
