I just started trying to keep track of my finances. I'm a college student, so my requirements are really minimal. I looked a few of the available programs. I just found Gnucash's interface more oriented towards businesses, and not really being that friendly. Also, it uses GTK 1.0... I find it a bit ugly which means that I need to find a new theme....
Anyway, I found grisbi which seems to suit my needs, although it does have some rough edges. For example, it is difficult to get it to forget about Euros and start using dollars. The preferences let me add dollars but I was not able to delete euros. It looks like there is a Windows port of Grisbi available on sourceforge. -Nathan On Mon, Jan 17, 2005 at 10:16:14AM -0500, Roy Vestal wrote: > Funny...I was just looking at gnucash last night for home.
