Dear developers, recently I was showing the gnucash package to my dad and after a while, he was sitting very happy in for of a linux pc, asking questions and making notes. It seems that this was the first time, he was extremely happy with the linux machine.
Thanks for providing such an excellent package. I would like to contribute back in this email, which features he was asking for and were not yet available in gnucash. I think these are in fact only minor things! There is one feature, I want to code myself (see below) - I saw in the mailing list, that some developers are working on scheduled transactions. With this the first feature (and most comprehensive) is probably relatively easy to build. He wanted to enter an interest rate per account and wanted gnucash to predict the interest transactions automatically. If someone looks into that, please take into account, that the payment might be done on a different account. - In the "Account Summary", it is not possible to select that the description field of the accounts is printed - In the "Accounts" window, the total value of each account is printed. But the user has maybe already entered future transactions and wants to display the current value of the accounts (should at least be an option) - In the "Get Quotes" functionality, I may work myself. If seems that many funds are not available there (e.g. dwstrust funds). The amazing thing for me is that the Finance::Quote modul (version 1.0.6) has support, but gnucash does not have, although it is claimed that gnucash is using finance::quote. I am scanning the mailing list archive, before I am starting to ask more detailed questions. Keep up the good work and thanks again.
