X-Accountant
------------
xacc is a program to keep track of your finances. It is similar in
concept to Quicken(TM). Although xacc still lacks the advanced
features of quicken, it does have the basic functionality. Some
of the features of xacc are:
- 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 :)
To install:
-----------
First check the makefile to ensure that all the paths are ok.
Also, make sure that the Xbae-Matrix widget and Motif or
Lesstif are installed. You can get Lesstif from
http://www.lesstif.org. You can get The Xbae widget from
ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/widgets/motif/ or any mirror. If
you are using a version of Xbae 4.6.1, you will need to
comment out "-DUSEQUICKFILL" in the Makefile.
