Hi guys,
The Brits amongst us have horrendous problems downloading prices from
Yahoo, esp. if you want to download OEICS/Unit Trusts. It seems that
Yahoo is constantly fiddling with the layout on the server, meaning
that download scripts require ongoing maintenance.
To that end, I post my

Thanks, I've fixed it and will push in about 10 mins.
Thanks John. I've managed to get a build now, so I'm keen to flex

Hi John,
Git is something of a strange and mysterious beast to me, so forgive
me if I've got things confused. At you page
http://github.com/jwiegley/ledger/tree/master#
you recommend that we do
git checkout -b maint origin/maint
I'm thinking that such a branch doesn't exist (??), because it

It just hasn't been implemented yet for 3.0. It's coming. ;)
I had a look around the code, and I saw a file

Hi Mark. If you can send me a quick note when you have got it up I'd
appreciate it. Many thanks.

Alas, the magic died. I think I was tinkering with the folder from
Ubuntu, which possibly helped set things up a bit.
Unfortunately, I see that
Hi,
I'm wondering if there's much of a British contingent here on ledger.
Anyone owning up?
I have been playing with the latest build of ledger. I have been
encountering UTF-8 issues :( I think I'm right in saying that £
(poundsign) is ascii code Dec 163 - a single byte - but in UTF-8

Just FYI: I do all of my Ledger builds with g++ 4.3 as well. Neither of
Apple's versions support full debug + pre-compiled headers.
Well, that's good to know. I have encountered a couple of problems
with ledger, so using a debugger seems like a

Excellent find! I'll get on this shortly.
Thanks. Hopefully you'll keep the @@ behavior consistent with @ .

Hi Mark. I appreciate this and your recommendations. Your version of
autoconf and automake are up to date with ports. glibtool --version is

Hi Mark. This is what I anticipated. You are using current libtool - not the
stale software apple bundled with the system. I just bought this a month
ago. I am confident it will build with new autoconf. I am on a mac mini
which is 32bit. I am not

oooh, a. John I can't wait !!
I think we're all excited. Of course, some of us need to be able to
build it first ;)
Here's something I would like to open up for discussion.
Suppose I have the ledger file example1.txt (attached)

You are correct, this should be the behavior. You've solved for me the
mysterious of what the terminus variable meant in the 2.x sources, since I
had failed to document it. :)
Would you like me to have a crack at providing a patch for this?
How do I enable debugging so that I see the DEBUG statements work?
2009/3/29 John Wiegley jwieg...@gmail.com:
In 3.0, the £ sign will not cause problems, provided your file is encoded
with UTF-8.
The weird thing is that my text editors seemed to fancy a switch
between ASCII and UTF-8, creating all sorts of problems. Using a
variety of editors from different

This is a regression of 2.x behavior, so the priority for this is MUSTFIX.

I'm very much looking forward to the new version of ledger. I have it
compiling on Slackware now - it wasn't nearly as much of a struggle as
I thought it was going to be.
