I'm pleased to announce hledger 1.16.1 !
I'm pleased to announce hledger 1.17 !
hledger 1.16 was released on schedule on 2019-12-01, but only to
hackage and github, since I was travelling and behind a rain-disrupted
microwave link. Today brings the release notes & docs updates on
hledger.org, and a 1.16.1 point release with some packaging updates.
hledger is a robust, cross-platform, plain text accounting tool, with
command-line, terminal and web UIs. It is a modern and largely
compatible reimplementation of Ledger CLI with many improvements.
You can use it to track time, money, investents, cryptocurrencies,
inventory and more. See:
Thanks to release contributors Dmitry Astapov, Mykola Orliuk, Brian
Wignall, Alejandro García Montoro, Timofey ZAKREVSKIY, Amitai
Burstein, and Michael Kainer.
