Which is good.  OTOH, this is obviously useful functionality.  It would
be nice to be able to generate a quick reminder of bills due on login,
session start or what-have-you, no?  And it'd be nice not to have the
overhead of gnucash starting just to do that, no?

Is it possible to write a quick little script which parses a gnucash
file, extracts the scheduled transactions/bills/what-have-you coming up,
and displays them in a window or echos them to a console?
