Right, but to really make a framework that could be used with "-framework 
AqBanking" would require to change existing applications to in fact use "-
framework AqBanking" instead of just "-laqbanking". But that change would only 
be needed for MacOSX, so this would increase the complexity of using 
AqBanking.

However, the "framework" comes with correctly set paths (using 
"install_name_tool"), includes its own dependencies and is file system 
relocatable. In addition to that it is also exchangable, so there actually is 
a value in the "framework".

Anyway, if you can build the stuff (including dependencies) just fine yourself, 
that's fine with me, too. I just wanted to let you know about the "framework" 
;-)

About rewriting the wizard: The only change needed for the wizard itself would 
be to now call a function instead of running an external command. However, 
there a a few other changes which should be made to the plugins (e.g. to use 
the GWEN_GUI object as intended and to make it usefull to Gnucash).

At any rate, its well understandable that this won't make it into 2.4 given 
the timeframe.


Regards
Martin
