* Add an option to use unicode in balance tables
fixes#522
* Add a test for unicode tables
* Document --pretty-tables
* Support --pretty-tables in BalanceView
The balance command's --format option (in single-column mode) can now
adjust the rendering of multi-line strings, such as amounts with multiple
commodities. To control this, begin the format string with one of:
%_ - renders on multiple lines, bottom-aligned (the default)
%^ - renders on multiple lines, top-aligned
%, - render on one line, comma-separated
Also the final total (and the line above it) now adapt themselves to a
custom format.
Using "hledgerdev" was a hack to help ensure that tests used a fresh
developer build by default. Now they specify "hledger" again, which fits
better with stack. It's up to the tester to make sure the desired
executable is first in PATH or specified with -w. (Note a couple of
tests currently don't obey -w and will always run "hledger", see addons.test).
Previously, a depth:0 query produced an empty report (since there are no
level zero accounts). Now, it aggregates all data into one summary item
with account name "...".
This makes it easier to see the kind of data Gwern was looking for from
register-csv (net worth over time). Eg this shows one line per month
summarising the total of assets and liabilities:
hledger register-csv -- -MHE ^assets ^liabilities depth:0
Single and multi-column balance reports behave similarly.
In periodic multicolumn balance reports, column headings now show a more
compact description of common periods (years, half-years, quarters,
months, weeks) for better readability and screen space efficiency.
