A literal Y directive or ‘year’ directive with an empty or invalid
argument, e.g. ‘2o14’ (that is a small letter ‘oh’ instead of a zero)
would fail with the following rather unhelpful error message:
Error: bad lexical cast: source type value could not be interpreted as target
The following script makes it a no-brainer:
% NEXT_YEAR=2015; ag -l 'Copyright.*Wiegley' \
| xargs sed -i '' -e "s/\(Copyright.*\)-20[0-9]\{2\}/\1-${NEXT_YEAR}/"
ledger -f /dev/null reg -M test causes a segmentation fault,
see bug 730 and duplicates 1080 and 1084 for details.
Kudos to Ikke for helping with debugging.
If set, the COLUMNS environment variable will take precedence over terminal
width. However, please note that COLUMNS is usually *not* exported by shells to
child processes, so in most cases COLUMNS will be undefined for ledger---hence
the motivation for this change.
Terminal width is queried using ioctl() on stdin. For the sake of portability
the querying is done only on platform where ioctl() is detected as supported at
compile-time.
Dates specified via --begin and --end are converted to a value expression
using an ISO 8601 (yyyy-mm-dd) date, but this date was not recognized by
ledger.
Bug fix for #1072
Change the definition of cost: in the past, if you bought 1 AAA for
$10 and then sold it for $12, ledger would take $12 as the cost. With
the patch, the original cost of $10 is preserved ss the cost basis.
In my opinion, this brings ledger in line with accounting expectations.
This change fixes bugs #712 and #713.
Bug #712 is about Equity:Capital Gains and Equity:Capital Loss
entries ledger automatically generates that are in my opinion
incorrect.
Bug #713 is about strange behaviour with -B after a capital gain or
loss is made.
Patch from John Wiegley.
When a cost was specified without a whitespace after the @ symbol,
as in @$5.01, this was incorrectly parsed as 5.01 (losing the
commodity) rather than $5.01.
Bug fix for #1050
A wrong query string was generated by "select account": one ansify_if()
too much was listed and justify() was called with the wrong parameters.
Bug fix for #744
It's possible to just say "select account" without a "from", so
put the debug statement at the end of the block where the variable
"formatter" is filled with the query string.
