For example, -A and -V used to override each other, whereas now:
-A report the average amount
-V report all amounts at current value
-AV report the current value of the average
-VA report the average of all current values
The different namespaces are:
Function Value expression functions, which receive a "context"
Option Command-line options
Precommand Commands which are invoked before reading the journal
Command Commands which are invoked after reading the journal
Directive Directives that occur at column 0 in a data file
This greatly eases the ability for Python uses to add intercept hooks to
change how the basic Ledger module functions. An example of what should
be possible soon:
import ledger
def my_foo_handler(value):
print "--foo received:", value
ledger.add_handler(ledger.Option, "foo=", my_foo_handler)
These strings are now collected automagically in the file po/ledger.pot.
If you'd like to produce a translation, just run this command after
building Ledger:
msginit -l LOCALE -o LANG.po -i po/ledger.pot
Where LOCALE is a string like de or en_GB, and LANG is a short
descriptive word for your language.
Then send me this .po file so I can commit it to the Ledger sources
(alternatively, you could maintain the file in a fork on GitHub), and
setup the build script to format and install your new message catalog
during a "make install".
Created a new function, session_t::reread_journal_files, which throws
away all previous state data and reads in the same files again. This is
needed to allow Emacs to communicate with Ledger via the REPL, so that
it tell Ledger when it has made changes to the user's data file.
For example, "ledger eval options.limit" prints 0 (for false), but:
"ledger -l hello eval options.limit" print "hello"s, since the value of
options.limit, once set to a value, is that string. For flag options,
such as -Y, eval prints 0 if unset, and 1 if set.
This feature allows value expressions to be conditionalized based on the
presence of user options.
