Hi Folks,
I have installed "gnucash-docs", but there seems to be no benefit. Before I installed "gnucash-doc", "man
gnucash" gave me a short, one page set of instructions and this did not change. I find I have /usr/share/doc/gnucash-docs/ but there
are four files there and no manual pages. When I invoke "Help" from the application, I get generic Linux "Help" topics,
but -- importantly -- no gnucash "Help".
Can anybody give me "Help"? (Ha! Geeze! Sometimes I just crack myself up!)
Thanks for the help,
Sure! Glad to help.

What exactly did you install, and how? Did you install a flatpack
package named "gnucash-docs"? Something via apt-get? MacPorts port
"gnucash-docs" on macOS? One of the downloadable documentation files
from <https://gnucash.org/docs.phtml>?
If it was the MacPorts port "gnucash-docs", this command will explain
what is in the package and how to get to it:
% port info gnucash-docs
gnucash-docs @5.8 (gnome, x11)
Description: GnuCash is a personal and small-business
financial-accounting software, freely licensed under the GNU GPL.
Designed to be easy to use, yet powerful and flexible, GnuCash allows
you to track bank accounts, stocks, income and expenses. As quick and
intuitive to use as a checkbook register, it is based on professional
accounting principles to ensure balanced books and accurate reports.
This package contains (1) the user manual and (2) the Tutorial And
Concepts Guide. Both are available through yelp, the gnome help browser,
and an HTML copy is installed in /opt/local/share/doc/gnucash.
So, try "yelp, the gnome help browser", and try pointing your web
browser to /opt/local/share/doc/gnucash .
And this command will list the storage locations of 10 index.html files
which are the starting points for two documents in five languages each:
% port contents gnucash-docs | grep index.html
Does that answer your question?
