Version history:
------- -------
+3.903 - 1 June 2020
+The second undatble release leading to the new 4.x stable series. See 3.902
+below for additional requirements and features.
+
+New Dependency: Boost program_options.
+
+New Features:
+
+ A new separate executable, gnucash-cli (gnucash-cli.exe on Microsoft Windows)
+ for doing command-line things like updating the prices in your book.
+ gnucash-cli gains the ability to run reports from the command line. Specify
+ reports to run by name or guid. It also provides an export format and an
+ output file name without which it will output the report to stdout.
+ Report Synopsis:
+ gnucash --run-report=[reportname/guid] datafile.gnucash
+ gnucash --run-report=[reportname/guid] --output-file=x.html datafile.gnucash
+ gnucash --run-report=[reportname/guid] --output-file=x.html --export-type=TYPE datafile.gnucash
+
+ When deleting accounts the destination accounts of moved splits will be
+ checked to ensure that they're the same as the source. If they're not
+ you'll get a warning and the opportunity to pick another account or to
+ carry on regardless.
+
+ New type-ahead search added to sequential search when selecting an account in
+ the register: Instead of typing the first few characters of a top level
+ account, the separator, the first few characters of the next level account
+ and so on you may instead type a few characters of any part of a full
+ account name and the drop-list will be filtered to contain only matching
+ accounts. Once you have a small enough list you can use the arrow keys to
+ select the account that you want.
+
+ Python bindings are now localized and their strings available for translation.
+
+ The new reports introduced in the Experimental Reports menu are moved to the
+ main menu and the old reports hidden; the old reports can be unhidded by
+ running GnuCash from the commandline with the --extra argument. That will
+ cause the old reports to appear in their regular locations on the menu
+ labeled legacy. Note that new reports use different options and layouts and
+ you may need to adjust your saved report configurations.
+
+ A new Transaction Association dialog, available from the new Update
+ Transaction Association item in the register context menu, provides the
+ ability to have multiple associations for a single transaction. Associations
+ may now be easily removed.
+
+ Allow Associations to be added to invoices. The actual association when
+ present is added as a link button which is shown below the notes.
+
+ A symbol is now displayed on transactions in the register when they have an
+ attachment and the selected font supports the symbol.
+
+ The OFX file importer can now import more than one file at a time.
+
+ A new report menu supbmenu Multicolumn contains the old custom-multicolumn
+ report and a new Dashboard report containing Account reports for expenses
+ and income, an income-expense chart, and an account summary.
+
+ When importing, the matcher will no longer offer to match a transaction to
+ one that has already matched in a previous import, nor will it offer to
+ match more than one imported transaction to a single existing transaction.
+
+ When no file is open don't ask to save it when opening another file or
+ quitting GnuCash.
+
+ Support for UK VAT and Australian GST added to the Income-GST report. The
+ reports options are changed from source accounts to source sales and
+ purchase accounts to permit proper reporting of capital purchases.
+ N.B. This is incompatible with previous versions of the report and will
+ require regenerating saved configurations.
+
+ Add option to save Layout for Business items.
+ Add two menu items under windows, one to save an existing layout for
+ Invoices, Bills and Vouchers to there respective default layouts so the
+ user set column widths will be used. The second menu item will reset the
+ column widths to defaults and remove the default layout. Open Business
+ items will also save there column widths to the page section so these can
+ temporarily have different widths.
+
+Newly Revised Reports
+ Income GST
+
+Significant Code Changes:
+
+ gnucash-bin.c has been split into 4 parts, mostly C++:
+ * gnucash.cpp, the GUI executable.
+ * gnucash-cli.cpp, the command-line executable.
+ * gnucash-commands.cpp, implementation for the commands that can be run
+ from the command-line.
+ * gnucash-app-core.cpp, common code required by both the command line and
+ gui programs.
+ * There's also an auxiliarty file, gnucash-windows-locale.c because the
+ localization code proved resistant to compiling as C++. We're planning
+ another auxiliary file for the MacOS localization.
+
+ A new mock facility for several engine classes to permit better-isolated
+ unit testing of components that depend on those classes.
+
+ Register filter and sort values are saved in the book's state file (book.gcm)
+ in the user's configdir instead of in the book.
+
+ QofSession no longer creates its book, instead one must create a book first
+ and pass that to qof_session_new()/QofSession::QofSession().
+
+ Add option to save Layout for Register itemsAdd two menu items under
+ windows, one to save an existing register layout based on the register type
+ to there respective default layouts so the user set column widths will be
+ used when opening registers. The second menu item will reset the column
+ widths to defaults and remove the associated default layout. Open registers
+ will also save there column widths to the page section so these could can
+ temporarily have different widths.
+
+ Add option to save Layout for Business items.
+ Add two menu items under windows, one to save an existing layout for
+ Invoices, Bills and Vouchers to there respective default layouts so the
+ user set column widths will be used. The second menu item will reset the
+ column widths to defaults and remove the default layout. Open Business
+ items will also save there column widths to the page section so these can
+ temporarily have different widths.
+
+ Input Method handling in the register is moved to the GtkEntry where it
+ belongs.
+
+
+Between 3.10 and 3.901, the following bugfixes were accomplished:
+
+ Bug 796531 - transaction report: export file/location associated with
+ transaction.
+ Displays the Transaction Association link in the Transaction
+ Report and when selected will open the association outside of
+ Gnucash as it currently does when opened from the register.
+ Bug 796932 - Invoices order when assigning paymentssorts documents in
+ dialog-payment.c by date, then by document ID.
+ Bug 797052 - Autofill Selection is Corrupted After Clicking Description
+ Bug 797185 - [transaction association window] sorting by column.

+ Bug 797220 - delete account allows move of all transactions to account having
+ non-matching currency
+ Bug 797236 - Regression: Reconcile window transaction list resets to top
+ when new transaction created in account.
+ Bug 797264 - 3.5 can't use Chinese IME input.
+ Bug 797329 - Using Japanese IME to enter transactions results in unexpected
+ field jumps
+ Bug 797388 - GnuCash 3.6 segfaults regularly.
+ Bug 797648 - Cannot reconcile both splits of a transaction with 2 splits for
+ bank account subaccounts if only 1 is cleared

+ Bug 797689 - Child dialog windows are demoted behind parent window when task
+ switching.
+ Bug 797707 - CSV Transaction Export: custom dates should be insensitive by
+ default
+ Bug 797717 - Summary bar changes height when opening a menu or scrolling over
+ an option
+ Bug 797737 - Import matching can match an imported transaction to an existing,
+ previously matched transaction
+ Bug 797743 - Monetary amounts are occasionally rendered in fractions
+ Bug 797745 - Unable to change default report currency
+ Bug 797748 - missing header "algorithm"
+ Bug 797750 - SIGSEV in swig-engine.c
+ Bug 797754 - In an account register, scrolling stops working when the mouse
+ pointer re-enters the scrollbar after leaving it.
+ Bug 797760 - Broken register split activity--cannot delete splits, unable to
+ tab complete account name.
+ Bug 797761 - Customer report beta: opening balance tax column shows garbage
+ string
+ Bug 797768 - View Lots sorting numbers not right.
+ Bug 797770 - Reconciliation report does not consider credit transactions
+
+
+ The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports or new features:
+
+ Add an Invoice section to dialog-utils for when the path head changes.
+ Change the position the register pop up so it aligns better.
+ Fix the alignment of the Notes label in Transfer dialog.
+ Set the initial Split horizontal paned position to be half way when the
+ window is realized.
+ Set the expanding columns in the lot viewer to be the 'Title' and the
+ 'Description'. Also ellipsize the description to help with long
+ transaction descriptions.
+ Change the alignment of the numeric values in the lot viewer to be right
+ aligned so the numbers line up.
+ [new-aging] speed up split->ownerseveral speed ups
+ 1. split->owner will now cache results, bypassing gncOwnerGetOwnerFromLot
+ and gncInvoiceGetInvoiceFromLot for repeated calls to the same split.
+ 2. previously each call to split->owner would allocate a new gncOwner. Now
+ a new gncOwner is only allocated during a cache miss. the list of
+ gncOwners is maintained and is purged when split->owner is called with
+ #f. There is no need to maintain a to-free list of gncOwners anymore.
+ 3. instead of slow gncOwnerReturnGUID to test equality, use gncOwnerEqual.
+ Fix crash in case filter is less than 4 parameters.
+ Change the Options GtkCheckBox to use its own built-in label and remove the
+ label in the first column.
+ widgets.
+ Enable the Options Checkbox label to be used to toggle values.
+ Add enum SplitRegisterTypeGroup to group registers.
+ Change state_section parameter for gnc_table_save_state
+ Fix clang error about type mismatch GtkWidget* != void* aka gpointer.
+ HIG, I18N: Improve Budget menu entries
+ I18N: fix translator comments in window-reconcile.c
+ I18N: Fix several issuse with 'Help not found' strings
+ [QofLog] Replace hashtable with tree of vectors: 16x speedup.
+ Make qof_log_set_file static. Used only internally.
+ Move QofLogModule typedef to qoflog.h where it belongs.
+ [balsheet-eg] don't use safe-cadr and safe-cdr
+ They are safety hacks which indicate inability to deal with lists. Use
+ lists properly.
+ [eguile-utilities] deprecate single-use function used only by balsheet-eg.scm
+ [balsheet-eg] use "foreign" css class correctly.
+ [eguile-gnc] don't catch errors in eguile-gnc
+ Initially select the last account chosen in the account picker dialogs.
+ Separately keeps track of last investment account, security account, and
+ income account. One issue is that gnc_import_select_account doesn't tell
+ the caller if it put up a dialog or found the online ID on an existing
+ account. This means the last account may be one the user didn't manually
+ select.
+ Transaction matcher dialogue was not closing when changing book.
+ Correct parent widget for import new account dialog.
+ No Selection on load for Bill Terms.
+ Change the selection process so it selects the first entry if present on
+ load and also selects a newly created entry when completed.
+ Change the Tax Table dialogue to be based on a GtkWindow.
+ When using Gnucash on Microsoft Windows and a dialog opens a further dialog
+ when you switch away from the application and back the last dialog that has
+ the focus is behind the parent and it appears like the application has
+ frozen.
+ Fix LIBDBI_DRIVERS_DIR generation.
+ L10N:de: "Für" klein in "Ergebnisrechnung für Periode" etc.
+ I18N: Msgmerge recent changes
+ I18N: Hotfix for bug 797725Add a translator comment
+ L10N:de_CH: Ein weiterer Tippfehler im Kontenrahmen KMU
+ [test-stress-options] fix combinatorics testing
+ Premise: pairwise combinatorics testing is only possible when all options
+ have at least 2 options. The "General Journal" report is unique because
+ it starts with the Transaction Report options generator, and adds a few
+ hidden options. Unfortunately the Transaction Report receives the
+ "General/Stylesheet" option, with only 1 default stylesheet. The General
+ Journal report therefore has 1 stylesheet option with only 1 choice, and
+ is not acceptable to jenny for pairwise testing. It would fail the
+ combinatorics testing. Adding other stylesheets did not successfully allow
+ pairwise testing. Therefore the simplest way to test General Journal is to
+ disable multichoice testing whereby num(choices) is only 1.
+ [Account.cpp] more xaccAccountTypeGetFundamental types
+ Fix the crash that occurs when opening a new book when the
+ transaction-matching dialog has been opened then closed.
+ Display report zoom factor with one decimal space.
+ Fix transaction post_date being set to midnight local.
+ Respect the environment LD_LIBRARY_PATH for loading Scheme modules and tests.
+ Add a tip about announcements and other mailing lists.
+ Change occurrences of gdk_display_get_default to gdk_window_get_display()
+ Remove some Gtk version checks in code
+ Remove some Gtk version checks for CSS
+ Fix libgnc-app-utils.dylib install_name_dir. The install location changed as
+ part of expunging libgnc-module.
+
+Updated Translations: German, Swiss German, Ukrainian
+
+ Known Problems:
+
+ Bug 797708 - Reconcile Dialog on Import
+ Bug 797746 - [reports] German umlauts not escaped
