The purpose of this page is to unify the appearance of the GnuCash wiki.

Categories

2-letter categories are reserved:

• Uppercase: ISO region codes like DE (Germany), NO (Norway), ... contain region specific items like setup of tax tables.
• Capitalized: ISO language codes like De page in "german|deutsch" - also readers from AT, CH, ... can use it.

• in theory this should be lowercase, but wikimedia does not accept that.
• at some point in time we might move them in subdomains.

Typography

In commands use the following Syntax:

• <replacable text> like variables like username, path, filename
• [optional text] like optional parameters e.g. gnc-fq-dump [-v] <source> <symbol>...
• alternatives {on|off}
• Repetition ...
