I'm pleased to announce version 0.18 of hledger.
hledger (http://hledger.org) is a haskell library, command-line tool and
web application for working with financial data (or anything that can be
tracked numerically in an accounting journal). It is inspired by and
compatible with John Wiegley's Ledger. hledger reads a plain text file
describing transactions and lets you query account balances or transaction
details by various criteria. It can also help you record new

transactions, or convert CSV data from your bank.

* format conversion is now done on demand, and the convert command has been dropped. So instead of
`hledger convert FILE.csv` just do `hledger -f FILE.csv print` or any other command.
You can also pipe any supported format into `hledger -f- CMD` and hledger will try to do the right thing.
