Click "Create"
In "income Register" window. Enter "5000" in "income" field, click

No file is created.

I grab the latest out of CVS and got the same results. I had one
problem building that. In lib/g-wrap/configure.in I had to change
AM_PROG_LIBTOOL to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL.
I'm wondering if it could be a lesstiff problem. When I was runing the
CVS version, I notice lots of messages to stdout from callbacks
etc. When I selected the file menu, there were not any messages. I
have not looked at the code yet. I am running 0.88.9 release of
lestiff.

The strace log is about 1.2MB...
Note that strace complained:
ptrace: umoven: Input/output error
several times. I'm not sure what that means.
Linas> what was the name of the transaction log tthat was written?
translog.19990822064037.log. Since is rather small, I've attached it.
Thanks,
