Human-powered tests for hledger-ui
When you want to check that hledger-ui is working correctly, try some or all of these things. Additions welcome. Expected output, at least the first few lines of it, as copied from an 80x25 terminal, is shown below each step.
Another source of tests is the tutorial at https://hledger.org/ui.html, which has nice screenshots, but might be less up to date.
