QFX imports for Investment accounts

[Allan]

I'm sorry! Your having trouble with a QFX import, not QIF.  I can't 
help, and just distracted you I'm afraid.

....

calc2qif takes a spreadsheet  region and creates a QIF file. It works 
for non-split bank, cash transactions. Also investment TX.

Upon examination, this appears to be a further developed 
calc2qif/excel2qif version which handles splits. Since I use my linux 
machine for accounting, I haven't used it much except to note it appears 
to be "new and improved".
