This seems to be fallout from #1340's
2020-09-16 d0d39e615 lib,cli,ui,web: Introduce ReportSpec, which holds ReportOpts, the day of the report, and the parsed Query.
querystring_.
This helps deal with tricky quoting issues, as we no longer have to make
sure everything is quoted properly before merging it into a string.
This introduces some new helper functions which are exactly the same
as what we had before, but do not call
normaliseMixedAmountSquashPricesForDisplay, so that we can use the new
functions for displaying Transaction and Posting. It also goes through
and gets rid of most uses of the old showMixed* functions which would
benefit from using the new interface.
This changes showMixedAmountElided so that the width to elide to is
given as an argument, rather than fixed at 22 characters. This
actually uses the new renderTable interface. Mostly this is just an
internal change, but since we have more information about the widths
of things, we can actually get rid of some superfluous spaces in the
budget report output, previously there to make sure it stayed aligned
with the largest reasonable contents.
Previously showMixedAmountElided would show two amounts and then the
elision string if necessary. Now it will display as many Amounts as it
can subject to the condition that the amounts plus the elision string
fit within 22 characters.
This is an API change, but it seems better than having additional
colour-supporting variants and trying to avoid duplicated code.
I stopped short of changing showAmount, so cshowAmount still exists.
Periodic transactions were always on, which meant that periodic
transactions occurring today were always shown, in future or present
mode.
Now, both periodic transactions and display of future transactions are
controlled by --forecast, and toggleable by the F key ("forecast
mode"). The --future flag has been dropped (it still works as a hidden
alias for --forecast, but is deprecated).
It seemed to also make sense to leave auto postings off by default,
like hledger.
