Well, LibOFX is 95% C++. All you might have to learn is the standard template library, which I think wasn't mature at that time. As fo GnuCash it's C and Scheme (a Lisp like language), and it's a lot bigger. We are currently working on the developper docs, but it's still embryonic. In src/, look for *.html file for Scheme file doc, and in /src/doc/doxygen for C files doc. If there is something you can't find or understand, don't wait, ask questions. > Could you tell me th procedure for joining your GnuCash and libOFX > teams? The best way is simply to join libofx-devel and gnucash-devel mailing lists (see my last email), and introduce yourself (Which is pretty much done since I am sending copies of this message to both lists). Also, most of the developpers hang on the #gnucash irc channel on irc.gnome.org. My nick there is benoitg. I'm sure everyone will be glad to have someone with your experience onboard! -- Benoit Gr�goire http://step.polymtl.ca/~bock/ _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gnucash.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
