Here are a few issues I have with Wezterm

I am running Wezterm on Windows.

• Nusheell has a few issues with Wezterm. I have to disable the OSC133.

  $env.config.shell_integration.osc133 = false

• Using Nushell in Wezterm, the clear command (and also Ctrl-L), chop off part of the scrollback.

Pivot table of Auto Expenses

Show in a Pivot table how much has been spend by Auto and Year The data has to be cleaned and have fields added

• Remove commas from the Amount column
• Add Year and Yearmon columns
• Spilt the Category column into Auto and Work Columns

This data comes from MS Money, using UE to remove "total" lines, and blank lines.

Nushell Code without Total Row

I saw this in the Nushell Discotrd Channel. They were showing how they used a group-by and histogram together.

Data

• The data came from Reaction_Watch.
• This describes the data.

Split Records

The reaction_watch.csv "Subject" field can have more than one "field of study".

$nu variable

From the Help file about $NU

This is from Nushell 0.110.0 $nu The $nu constant is a record containing several useful values:

• default-config-dir: The directory where the configuration files are stored and read.
• config-path: The path of the main Nushell config file, normally config.nu in the config directory.
• env-path: The optional environment config file, normally env.nu in the config directory.
• history-path: The text or SQLite file storing the command history.
• loginshell-path: The optional config file which runs for login shells, normally login.nu in the config directory.

Determine how much was spent on Groceries

I exported the data from MS Money, for all years (2010 + 2025) the details on Grocies.

I wanted to see how to sum the data by year for one grocey store.

I had done this in Visidata, and I knew both Nushell with the Polars plugin and Xan could do it, so I decided how to get the syntax correct in both.

This is a very small dataset, only 1054 records.
