-E/--empty is now the default for hledger-ui, so accounts with 0 balance
and transactions posting 0 change are shown by default. The E key
toggles this, entering "nonzero" mode which hides zero items.
Make these modules' names more like the heavily-used types they
define (CliOpts, UIOpts, WebOpts). This is consistent with
RawOptions and ReportOptions, and helps with code navigation.
- clean up options a bit, enable -V/--value (affects the accounts screen)
- more informative top/bottom borders, including key help
- number keys adjust the depth limit (accounts screen)
- remove obsolete args parameter
- register screen:
- smarter width-sensitive layout, with multi-commodity amounts on one line
- items are sorted in date order
- jumps to the latest item by default, with consistent scroll position
- more prerendering, might speed up movement/paging slightly
- themes! --theme to select, --help to list (current themes: default, terminal, greenterm)
- border tweaks - dropped side borders, added side padding
The register screen is now like the register view in hledger-web (and
other accounting systems), rather than hledger's register command.
This means:
- it shows transactions affecting a particular current account, rather
than postings matching a pattern.
- Each line represents a whole transaction.
- The account field shows the *other* account being transacted with.
When there is more than one, they are all listed, abbreviated and
marked with "(split)".
- The amount field shows the effect of the transaction on the current
account; positive for an inflow to this account, negative for an
outflow.
- The balance field should usually show the current account's historic
balance as of the transaction date, even when you change the report
start date. (Not working yet - currently it always shows the running
total).
- Transactions are listed most recent first, currently.
hledger-ui (formerly hledger-vty) is now built on brick, a new
declarative UI layer built on vty. This brings much new power, and
should make the UI much easier to grow and maintain.
At this point, functionality and performance are similar to the old
version. There's no journal entries screen, but entering the postings
screen jumps to the latest posting, and layout is better (multiple
commodities are rendered on one line).
Requires unreleased brick from github (HEAD or some branch) for now.
