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.
The bench script invoked by cabal bench or stack bench now links the
benchmarked code directly, avoiding any dependence on the shell and
$PATH. Also, it reports the journal parse time and the various reports
on the parsed data separately, and runs quicker.
You can get more accurate benchmark times by running with --criterion.
This will usually give much the same numbers and takes much longer.
Benchmarking via simplebench is still available, by running with
--simplebench. In this mode it benchmarks whatever commands are
configured in bench/default.bench. A disadvantage is that it uses the
first "hledger" executable in $PATH, so check which one it reports.
