Vanguard investments
G'day GnuCash people, I've been writing a regression testing suite for the stock-quote functions of GnuCash. I was wondering if anyone has investments in the Vanguard group and has been using gnc-prices to keep up-to-date with their funds? If you have been, could you let me know the ticker symbols you've been using? The Vanguard site appears to have been re-organised and I suspect the old libraries may no longer work. Thanks muchly, Paul -- Gnucash Developer's List To unsubscribe send empty email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'll see what I can do about this. I'm going to find myself in a similar situation if I ever invest in US markets. (I want to know everything in Australian Dollars.) It appears that Yahoo have an on-line currency converter, so I'll work on adding currency conversion to Finance::Quote. When I've got it working okay I'll post more information to the list about adding currency conversion to GnuCash. I have found another problem with conversion: I do have an account in EURO. But in the main window, the total is given un FRF (I have set LC_MONETARY to "fr_FR") but it give the EURO amount. This is annoying sice that make me loose money :-) So GnuCash definetly needs a currencies conversion. For EURO, we can hardcode a fixed table of all "Euro currencies" since they are NOT supposed to evolve. For the other, we can have a table updated by the user (and automagically by gnc-prices).

Salut !
I've been writing a regression testing suite for the stock-quote
functions of GnuCash.
While you are on it, is it possible to ignore stocks that have an empty
"security" value ? Because there is a bug in GnuCash that prevent me from
removing the source for price quotes, making gnc-price not updating all the
other.
I attach the small patch to src/quotes/gnc-prices.in from current CVS so you
just need to include it :=)

CVS has been updated. New Stuff: + Hubert Figuiere's patch to gnc-prices.in. + Bug fix allowing the quote source to be set to (none). + Code to support unique identifiers for all accounts, transactions, etc. This is not ready to be used, it's just there for testing purposes. dave -- Gnucash Developer's List To unsubscribe send empty email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The EURO support is at its beginning now and it will take some time until it gets really useful. For now all it does is to display your profits and assets in the statusbar in local currency and EURO.

Re: Dividends
So GnuCash definetly needs a currencies conversion. For EURO, we can hardcode a fixed table of all "Euro currencies" since they are NOT supposed to evolve. For the other, we can have a table updated by the user (and automagically by gnc-prices). I woudn't rely on fixed exchange rates until the old national currencies are so obsolete that no one uses them any more. Since the fixed exchange rates were defined by politics, they can be changed by politics, no matter how permanent the politicians say they are. We still need a solution to the general problem of (variable) exchange rates. If we have one, it should handle the euro automagically. If we don't, we'll still need to build one, and then special effort on the euro will have been wasted.

OK, this must be the update that broke the build for me. cvsgnucash update -Pd -D "14 apr 2000" works fine cvsgnucash update -Pd -A segfaults just before the main window should appear.

budget patch new transaction report
Sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] this is a patch against -D "14 apr 2000" (see previous bug report) It should apply cleanly, though. - date filter bug fix - income bug fix - added filter-pred to budget-line. See documentation. - report sorting now works. - report subsections now work - report subtotals now work - really ugly colour scheme shows what can be done with new report format. Someone with more esthetic taste may want to fix things up (html-generator.scm) - totally new transaction report (transactions 2) on the menu - allows selection of multiple accounts - does not handle multiple splits properly (yet - should be easy to add) - sort is hardcoded to account (primary) and date (secondary). this'll be easy to fix as well I'll fix add multi-splits and sorting to the transaction report. Right now, it's Friday night and I've got plans. Please try out the new reports and comment, please. Bryan -- - Bryan Larsen, Senior Software Engineer fall guy Phone: 306 664 2087 x29.
