Title:		xacc -- simple single-user accounting program
Version:	0.9t
Entered-date:	24NOV97
Description:    xacc is a program to keep track of your finances.  It 
                offers a simple check-book register style interface.
                Currently, the features are quite simple:

                - Multiple Accounts
                - Each account keeps a running balance and
                  a reconciled balance, so you can keep track
                  of the checks that have clear your account.
                - A simple interface.  If you can use the
                  register in the back of your checkbook,
                  you can use xacc.
                - QuickFill... if you begin typing a description
                  in the description fields, and it matches an
                  previous transaction, hitting <TAB> will copy
                  the previous transaction.  Handy if you have
                  similar transactions on a regular basis.
                  (such as depositing your paycheck every week :)
                - Stock/Mutual Fund Portfolios.  Tracks stock
                  investments.
                - General Ledger.  This is an advanced feature 
                  for more serious work. Supported are:
                   o Double Entry: Transactions can appear in two
                     accounts, one debited, one credited. 
                   o Sub-accounts: A master account can have 
                     a heriarchy of detail accounts.
                   o Income/Expense account types.
                   o General Ledger for displaying multiple
                     accounts at once.

                This is a beta development version with known
                minor user interface bugs and no known major bugs.
                Under rare circumstances, it will core dump (due to
                Motif problems) so save often! It has been tested 
                only lightly but seems to work. It is not beleived to
                corrupt data.
