Then, for now, I'll keep the "gnu.qif" name.

Yes, it's exactly the begining of an 'anything-to-qif' converter, where a
programmer would use the gnu.qif classes to define their transactions and
accounts, and output everything when ready.
The classes don't read anything in. They just wait to be instanciated and
used. It was exactly what I needed for my personal financial data.
Thanks again,
