I use GnuCash as treasurer of a PCC (Parochial Church Council). I have a sub-directory on my system called (very originally!) pcc and that has a further sub-directory for each year. So, in the ~/pcc/2023 directory I have the GnuCash database file, and various other items like correspondence, the odd PDF file from the diocese and so on. Having all the GnuCash log files and such cluttering up the directory is a nuisance. -- Chris Green _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
