download transactions?

[Andre Powell]

A couple of  questions:
1. Is there an eta on LibOFX 0.8.2 and GnuCash 2.0.1
to fink (especially for 10.3.9 waiting to get Leopard
with my new Mac next year) - I tried using a later
version of LibOFX 0.7.0-2 and could not import anymore
2. How would one modify ofx-ba.py to only download the
last seven days - since my routine is every few days
to download
