Hmm... I guess I have the reverse problem, and I hope this isn't my
answer below... Gnucash used to categorize my transactions as they
came in, but generally doesn't now (I can't recall if there was one
or two it did categorize the last time).  I was wondering awhile
back if there wasn't any way to make it smarter, since there are
some key words I could say are _always_ in the gas station I use,
but not in the grocery store (though they are run by the same
company and bear the same name), for instance.

So if this isn't working (well or at all), there's no way to improve it?

Thanks,

Kent
