Have you seen many text editors that can do check book accounting,
math, recurring payments, generate reports etc.  No .. becasue its
silly to think they could.  I didn't recommend Wiggins be shot for it
only not to get carried away.

I've said nothing silly about the gnucash software.  The one reference
I made was that it was `very powerfull'.  The desire to be able to
easily do simple checkbook accounting may be primative by gnucash
standards but is not silly.  I properly thanked the posters for there
time. Particulary Josh Sled.  What exactly did you find silly?

They represent the first take of a layman who is at least somewhat
computer savvy.
