Description:
 Kraft is KDE-Software for people who drive a
small business. Kraft helps to create business
communication documents like offers and invoices.

Kraft is not a program specialised on a certain
trade or craft.
Instead Kraft covers the practical issues of a
small business and helps through ease of use yet
powerfull features to deal with most of the office
jobs effectivly.

Please read the homepage for more details.

Changelog:
 Kraft release 0.22 is the next step in an ongoing
development towards a general tool for business
communication targeted to craftsmen and people who
operate a small business. 

The Kraft release 0.22 changes the text template
system that is used by Kraft to support user
configureable pdf output. It was changed from a
very basic homegrown system to the google
ctemplate system, details under
http://code.google.com/p/google-ctemplate/
It is very flexible and mature and thus future
proof which was reason enough to switch to it at
this early project state. The template format is
slightly different to the former format, so
editing of own templates is required.

Additionally two new kinds of document positions
were added: 
Alternative and demand positions. The alternative
positions describe an alternative to another
position. The demand position describes a position
where it is not yet clear if and how much of it is
needed.
Both position kinds do not add to overall sum and
are marked through italic characters in the
printout by default.

Furthermore a lot of bugfixes and genral code
improvements where committed. The database scheme
was extended, update is automatically
performed.
