excess files

[Phillip J Shelton]

The only file that it is emperitive to keep is the file that is the name of your
chart.

I called mine cash

The  ones that end in .xac or .log are backups that gnucash makes automaticly.

The  .xac are the trail of your use of the save function.  The .log files are a
record of the changes as you added transactions.

So you could thow them all away.  However you may want to keep at least the latest
just in case the inpossable happens and the working file gets corrupted.
