Adrien, Neither “clarification” is correct. The “Tutorial and Concepts Guide” contains a *very* basic introduction to double-entry accounting, enough to get a new user going if all they have is a simple bank account and credit card. The rest of it is “how-to” on using GnuCash to perform some

Nice. How about this for a tad more clarity on the two official documentation items: * [http://www.gnucash.org/viewdoc.phtml?doc=help The Help Manual] - a quick reference manual for ~~specific~~ _basic accounting_ tasks, and * [http://www.gnucash.org/viewdoc.phtml?doc=guide The Tutorial and

Frank, Thank you for implementing the changes. WRT removing the references to the glossaries, it *was* my intention to remove them, for a few reasons. First, the glossaries are sections of either the Guide or of the wiki. Thus, like the FAQ and the Using Gnucash links, it doesn't merit top

Hi David, I have applied it, but have 2 questions: Was it intended to remove the reference to the glossary completely? Should we somehow note, that in doubt the wiki might be more recent than the official docs? Regards Frank Am 20.08.2018 um 15:57 schrieb David T. via gnucash-devel: > OK. I

OK. I have looked over this issue with an eye to clarifying the text, and I believe that the User Documentation section should be simplified. As currently written, as you all have noted, the User Documentation section includes different layers of content, presented at the same tier of coverage.

The glossary entry has historically been included separately on this page. When I last suggested changes for the page, it didn't occur to me to remove that separate section and incorporate references to them (there are two glossaries: one in the Guide, and the one on the wiki, each with

In combination with making the T glossary sentence a part the Official documentation paragraph, I think the second sentence should be moved down to the Developer Documentation paragraph. Also, the following line needs a number correction: "The Documentation page on the gnucash.org website also
