hledger is a minimal haskell clone of John Wiegley's "ledger" text-based accounting tool (http://newartisans.com/software/ledger.html). hledger generates ledger-compatible register & balance reports from a plain text ledger file, and demonstrates a functional implementation of ledger. For more information, see the hledger home page: http://joyful.com/hledger INSTALLATION ------------ If you have cabal-install, do:: cabal install hledger otherwise, unpack http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/hledger/0.2/hledger-0.2.tar.gz and do:: runhaskell Setup.hs configure runhaskell Setup.hs build sudo runhaskell Setup.hs install (or for the latest code, darcs get http://joyful.com/repos/hledger) NEWS ---- * fixes * fix balance report totals when filtering by account * fix balance report selection of accounts when filtering by account * fix a bug with account name eliding in balance report * if we happen to be showing a not-yet-auto-balanced entry, hide the AUTO marker * fix print command filtering by account * omit transactions with zero amount from register report * Fix bug in parsing of timelogs * rename --showsubs to --subtotal, like ledger * drop --usage flag * don't require quickcheck * features * priced amounts (eg "10h @ $50") and --basis/--cost/-B flag to show them with cost basis * easy --depth option, equivalent to c++ ledger's -d 'l<=N' * smarter y/m/d date parsing for -b and -e (any number of digits, month and day default to 1, separator can be / - or .) * -n flag for balance command * --empty/-E flag * build a library, as well as the exe * new home page url (http://joyful.com/hledger) * publish html and pdf versions of README * detect display preferences for each commodity like c++ ledger * support amounts with multiple currencies/commodities * support --real/-R flag * support -C/--cleared flag to filter by entry status (not transaction status) * support virtual and balanced virtual transactions * parse comment lines beginning with a space, as from M-; in emacs ledger-mode * allow any non-whitespace in account names, perhaps avoiding misleading missing amounts errors * clearer error message when we can't balance an entry * when we fail because of more than one missing amount in an entry, show the full entry * document the built-in test runner in --help * add a --verbose/-v flag, use it to show more test-running detail * includes 43 tests Contributors: * Simon Michael * Tim Docker
