I'm pleased to announce the release of hledger 1.13,
 | 
						|
the first hledger release of 2019!
 | 
						|
Thank you release contributors Jakob Schöttl and Dmitry Astapov.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
hledger is a robust, cross-platform plain text accounting tool, for
 | 
						|
tracking money, time, stocks, cryptocurrencies or any other commodity,
 | 
						|
using double-entry accounting, private or shared plain text files,
 | 
						|
revision control, and command-line, curses or web UIs.
 | 
						|
Find out more at http://hledger.org and http://plaintextaccounting.org.

Release notes (condensed, see http://hledger.org/release-notes):
 | 
						|
-------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
project-wide changes for 1.13
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   packaging: A docker image providing the main hledger tools is now
 | 
						|
    linked on the download page. This is another way to get up-to-date
 | 
						|
    hledger tools without building them yourself (and, a way to run
 | 
						|
    hledger-ui on windows ?) (Dmitry Astapov, Simon Michael)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   doc: fixed pandoc typography conversion in web manuals. Eg -- was
 | 
						|
    being rendered as en-dash. (#954).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
hledger 1.13
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   cli: reorganised commands list. Addons now have a + prefix.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   cli: the command line help and manual section for all hledger's
 | 
						|
    commands are now consistent, and generated from the same source.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   cli: comprehensive bash completion support is now provided (in
 | 
						|
    shell-completion/). See how-to in the Cookbook. (Jakob Schöttl)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   balance --budget: budget amounts now aggregate hierarchically, like
 | 
						|
    account balances. Unbudgeted accounts can be shown with -E/--empty
 | 
						|
    (along with zero-balance accounts), and the --show-budgeted flag has
 | 
						|
    been dropped. (Dmitry Astapov)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   balance: new --transpose flag switches the rows and columns of
 | 
						|
    tabular balance reports (in txt and csv output formats). (Dmitry
 | 
						|
    Astapov)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   close: generated balance assertions now have exact amounts with all
 | 
						|
    decimal digits, ignoring display precision. Also, balance assertion
 | 
						|
    amounts will no longer contain prices. (#941, #824, #958)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   files: now shows up in the commands list
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   import: be silent when there's nothing to import
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   roi: percentages smaller than 0.01% are displayed as zero (Dmitry
 | 
						|
    Astapov)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   stats, ui: correct file order is preserved when using --auto (#949)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   journal: account directive: the account name can now be followed by
 | 
						|
    a comment on the same line
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   journal: account directive: account types for the bs/bse/cf/is
 | 
						|
    commands can now be set with a type: tag, whose value is Asset,
 | 
						|
    Liability, Equity, Revenue, Expense, A, L, E, R or X
 | 
						|
    (case-insensitive). The previous syntax (account assets A) is now
 | 
						|
    deprecated.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   journal: account directive: account sort codes like account 1000
 | 
						|
    (introduced in 1.9, deprecated in 1.11) are no longer supported.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   journal: transaction modifiers (auto postings) can affect periodic
 | 
						|
    transactions (--auto can add postings to transactions generated with
 | 
						|
    --forecast). (Dmitry Astapov)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   journal: balance assertion errors now show exact amounts with all
 | 
						|
    decimal digits. Previously it was possible, in case of a commodity
 | 
						|
    directive limiting the display precision, to have a balance
 | 
						|
    assertion error with asserted and actual amounts looking the same.
 | 
						|
    (#941)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   journal: fixed a periodic transaction parsing failure (#942) (Dmitry
 | 
						|
    Astapov)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
hledger-ui 1.13
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   on posix systems, control-z suspends the program
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   control-l now works everywhere and redraws more reliably
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   the top status info is clearer
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Getting started:
 | 
						|
----------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All install methods are described at http://hledger.org/download :
 | 
						|
windows binaries, system packages, docker, nix, cabal, stack, hledger
 | 
						|
installer, etc. Some of these might take a few days to become up to
 | 
						|
date. On systems with bash installed, the hledger installer is a
 | 
						|
reliable way to get the latest release of hledger:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
$ curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simonmichael/hledger/master/hledger-install/hledger-install.sh > hledger-install.sh
 | 
						|
$ less hledger-install.sh  # satisfy yourself that the script is safe
 | 
						|
$ bash hledger-install.sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Then try:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
$ hledger               # list available commands
 | 
						|
$ hledger help          # list built-in manuals
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
