I am running Ubuntu 18.04 on my laptop. (Dell XPS-13). My wife runs Windows 10 on her Asus EeePC 1201N. We move the GnC data files (multiple books) back and forth via a shared drive that sits on the main home PC (also Windows 10).
When one wants to work on one set of the books, they grab the copy off the shared drive and put it where GnC wants to find it. Make the changes and copy the file back to the shared drive. So far, we both haven't been updating at the same time!
