GNOME forced me to abandoned it when I was *required* to install a sound library because of a dependancy upon it by the printing library. Why I need sound to print is still, to this day, a mystery to me! > Another is GNOME requiring all changes to the > configuration information be done through the gconf program. And this is why I abandoned GnuCash. The ability for me to use standard Unix command line tools on my data, config, and mail files, among others, is absolutely huge to me. I understand Aunt Tillie won't want or know how to do this, but I do. And I don't want to lose this ability! -- Seeya, Paul _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
