This Week In Hledger 2024-06-14
sm
I fixed an old bug with account type declarations in multiple files, and an incompatibility of --tldr with tealdeer. I automated the updating of option docs in manuals, and worked on code cleanups, refactoring, and removing tech debt. And I worked on various improvements:
-
tabular balance reports now show an outer table border and inter-column borders with --pretty, and they have better layout and headings in text and html output.
-
better/clearer command line processing
-
a config file system for next release
Doc updates: box-drawing characters, --pretty, --tldr.
Misc
The docker image for hledger 1.34 is out. And for recent discussions see: https://hledger.org/support.html

I switched away from Quickbooks, years ago, to plain text accounting. Couldn't be happier. I can do everything better using hledger/ledger, git, vim and make.

I've switched all my accounting over to hledger (a Haskell-based and slightly more feature-filled version of the original) and I'm SUPER happy with it so far.
