What development effort? It's already an option to build GnuCash on windows using MinGW64 instead of MinGW32 (setting aside that there's a Webkit problem with the Windows build so neither is possible right now). Most of the Linux distros are 64-bit only, though Debian insists on packaging

But, as R Losey pointed out, that would take considerable development effort. Is there any actual benefit to switching to a 64-bit program, and is that benefit large enough to justify the development effort, even if all the needed libraries are available in 64-bit forms. It seems to me that the

Also the database/XML file itself refers them as splits (i.e, each transaction is made up of two or more splits), so if we start using different terminology for what people on the frontend it could get really confusing if we are trying to resolve a problem and have to refer to what's in the data

An x64 build will work only on 64-bit PCs, a 32-bit build works on both. Windows 11 doesn't support 32-bit and Windows 10, which does support 32-bit computers, goes end-of-life this May. We don't "officially" support operating systems after EOL so I guess at some point after that we can switch

The Gnucash community has had this discussion many times in the past. My recollection is that the following terminology is accepted: * Each line is a "split," and thus a basic transaction has two such splits. * A transaction with more than two splits is referred to as a multi-split transaction.

Don't forget, changing "split" to a "new term" would mean program changes. When I click on a line within a transaction and then click the delete icon, a popup asks whether I want to delete "the split". And that happens whether there are two splits in the transaction or more than two. (It is of

A "simple journal entry" is a journal entry that involves no more than two accounts. A "compound journal entry" is a journal entry that involves more than two accounts. That's the 'easy' part. Now there are entries that involve multiple debits or multiple credits, or both, that only impact
