* parsing: allow parentheses and brackets inside account names, as ledger does
* parsing: fail on empty account name components, don't just ignore
* add: description passed as arguments now affects first transaction only
* add: better handling of virtual postings and default amounts
* print, register: show virtual accounts bracketed/parenthesised
* web: improved web ui supporting full patterns & period expressions
* new "stats" command reports some ledger statistics

Release stats:
* Contributors: Simon Michael

2009/05/23 hledger 0.5.1
.................................
* two fixes: really disable vty flag by default, and include ConvertCommand in cabal file
2009/05/23 hledger 0.5
...............................
* the vty flag is disabled by default again, to ease installation on windows
* use ledger 3 terminology: a ledger contains transactions which contain postings
* new "add" command prompts for transactions interactively and adds them to the ledger
* new "convert" command transforms bank CSV exports to ledger format, with rule-based cleanup
* new "histogram" command shows transaction counts per day or other reporting interval
* most commands now work properly with UTF8-encoded text (Sergey Astanin)
* invoking as "hours" is now less different: it just uses your timelog, not your ledger
* ..quarterly/-Q option summarises by quarter
* ..uncleared/-U option looks only at uncleared transactions
* be more accurate about checking balanced amounts, don't rely on display precision
* enforce balancing for bracketed virtual postings
* fix bug in eliding of posting amounts
* don't show trailing spaces on amountless postings
* parse null input as an empty ledger
* don't treat comments as part of transaction descriptions
* require some postings in ledger transactions
* require a non-empty description in ledger transactions
* don't fail when matching an empty pattern, as in "not:"
* make the web server handle the null path
* code, api and documentation updates
* add a contributor agreement/list

2009/04/03 hledger 0.4
...............................
* new "web" command serves reports in a web browser (install with -f happs to build this)
* make the vty-based curses ui a cabal build option, which will be ignored on MS windows
* drop the ..options-anywhere flag, that is now the default
* patterns now use not: and desc: prefixes instead of ^ and ^^
* patterns are now case-insensitive, like ledger
* !include directives are now relative to the including file (Tim Docker)
* "Y2009" default year directives are now supported, allowing m/d dates in ledger
* individual transactions now have a cleared status
* unbalanced entries now cause a proper warning
* balance report now passes all ledger compatibility tests
* balance report now shows subtotals by default, like ledger 3
* balance report shows the final zero total when -E is used
* balance report hides the final total when ..no-total is used
* ..depth affects print and register reports (aggregating with a reporting interval, filtering otherwise)
* register report sorts transactions by date
* register report shows zero-amount transactions when -E is used
* provide more convenient timelog querying when invoked as "hours"
* multi-day timelog sessions are split at midnight
* unterminated timelog sessions are now counted. Accurate time reports at last!
* the test command gives better ..verbose output
* ..version gives more detailed version numbers including patchlevel for dev builds
* new make targets include: ghci, haddocktest, doctest, unittest, view-api-docs
* a doctest-style framework for functional/shell tests has been added

2009/01/17 hledger 0.3
...............................
* count timelog sessions on the day they end, like ledger, for now
* when options are repeated, use the last instead of the first
* builds with ghc 6.10 as well as 6.8
* a simple ui for interactive report browsing: hledger ui
* accept smart dates everywhere (YYYYMMDD, Y/M/D, Y, M/D, D, jan, today, last week etc.)
* ..period/-p flag accepting period expressions like "in 2008", "weekly from last month"..
* -W/-M/-Y convenience flags to summarise register weekly, monthly, yearly
* ..depth and -E flags also affect summarised register reports (including depth=0)
* ..display/-d flag supporting date predicates (like "d<[DATE]", "d>=[DATE]")
* !include directive to include additional ledger files
* !account directive to set a default parent account
* Added support for reading historical prices from files
* timelog and ledger entries can be intermixed in one file
* modifier and periodic entries can appear anywhere (but are still ignored)
* help and readme improvements
* runs much faster than 0.2
