When I looked at programs for this sort of thing, I concluded that Gnucash was the most "industrial"; it was the only free program I could readily find that would easily accomodate a double-entry-style accounting system. Personally, I think this is wonderful, but I can see how you'd think it's overkill, especially if you don't want to think about how it actually works. There do seem to be a couple of other (simpler?) options out there; among these are gacc, gnofin, and kmymoney2. You also might find xacc out there; it's a predecessor to gnucash, and probably won't be particularly easier to use. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
