1) More meta data updates (.cvsignore updates, debian/* updates, gnucash.lsm) 2) Changes to make-gnucash-patch.in. I like the changes, but I don't know whether they would be universally liked, so pay attention to this one. Changes include: a) check out compared source from cvs b) use .cvsignore files to get a large part of the --exclude list. c) Keep track of past patches by not automatically overwriting old patches and put the patches in a directory to keep things neat. 3) Refactoring in src/engine/Transaction.c to remove the redundant code setting dates in transactions. 4) remove all the #if 0 blocks in src/engine/io-gnc{bin,xml}* (helped my see things more clearly when looking at the code. Again ignore it if this is inappropriate.) 5) append emacs local variable settings stuff to save file so it's known as an xml file. 6) Patch to cleanup startup some more. a) src/gnome/top-level.c: don't run load-account-file, split up startup into a couple of functions. b) src/gnome/window-main.h; src/gulie/gnc.gwp: add the new functions c) src/scm/main.scm: do the new startup sequence. d) All this so in a batch environment you can start up the gui system without bringing up the default window. 7) src/scm/report/budget-report.scm: some refactoring/cleanup done while looking at the code. Nothing functional different (at least there shouldn't be.) git-svn-id: svn+ssh://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk@3320 57a11ea4-9604-0410-9ed3-97b8803252fd

Title: gnucash -- simple single-user accounting program
|
|
Version: 1.4.9
|
|
Entered-date: 18JUN99
|
|
Description: GnuCash is a personal finance manager. A check-book like
|
|
register GUI allows you to enter and track bank accounts,
|
|
stocks, income and even currency trades. The interface is
|
|
designed to be simple and easy to use, but is backed with
|
|
double-entry accounting principles to ensure balanced books.
|
|
|
|
Features include:
|
|
|
|
- An easy-to-use interface. If you can use the
|
|
register in the back of your checkbook, you
|
|
can use GnuCash. Type directly into the register,
|
|
tab between fields, and use quickfill to
|
|
automatically complete the transaction.
|
|
- Reconcile window with running reconciled
|
|
and cleared balances makes reconciliation easy.
|
|
- Stock/Mutual Fund Portfolios: Track stocks
|
|
individually (one per account) or in portfolio
|
|
of accounts (a group of accounts that can be
|
|
displayed together).
|
|
- Multiple Currencies & Currency Trading: Multiple
|
|
currencies are supported and can be bought and
|
|
sold (traded). Currency movements between accounts
|
|
are fully balanced when double-entry is enabled.
|
|
(Some aspects of mutiple currency support are not
|
|
fully implemented.)
|
|
- Quicken File Import: Import Quicken QIF style files.
|
|
QIF files are automtically merged to eliminate
|
|
duplicate transactions.
|
|
- Reports: Display Balance Sheet, Profit&Loss reports,
|
|
or print them as HTML.
|
|
- Chart of Accounts: A master account can have a hierarchy
|
|
of detail accounts underneath it. This allows similar
|
|
account types (e.g. Cash, Bank, Stock) to be grouped
|
|
into one master account (e.g. Assets).
|
|
- Split Transactions: A single transaction can be split
|
|
into several pieces to record taxes, fees, and
|
|
other compund entries.
|
|
- Double Entry: When enabled, every transaction must
|
|
debit one account and credit another by an equal amount.
|
|
This ensures that the "books balance": that the
|
|
difference between income and outflow exactly equals
|
|
the sum of all assets, be they bank, cash, stock or other.
|
|
- Income/Expense Account Types (Categories):
|
|
These serve not only to categorize your cash flow,
|
|
but when used properly with the double-entry feature,
|
|
these can provide an accurate Profit&Loss statement.
|
|
- General Ledger: Multiple accounts can be displayed
|
|
in one register window at the same time. This can
|
|
ease the trouble of tracking down typing/entry errors.
|
|
It also provides a convenient way of viewing a
|
|
portfolio of many stocks, by showing all transactions
|
|
in that portfolio.
|
|
- Written in C, with perl and scheme support for easy
|
|
configuration and extensibility.
