Welcome to the developer list. Sounds very good. > Here's the first one. I am of necessity testing GnuCash under Windows Sure. No problem with that -- we are still rather short on developers who regularly evaluate/use/improve gnucash on Windows; the vast majority of developers still work on Linux mostly. > If the XP account is named "Testonly" the initialization will work, the > directory .gconf and its contents will be created as expected, and > preference changes can be saved (normal behavior) > > If the XP account is named "Test & Retest" (this is a legal XP account > name) the directory .gconf doesn't get created, Very interesting observation. Does the directory ".gnucash" get created on both account names? If it does, gnucash's handling of account names and paths is correctly implemented. In that case we'd have to forward the bugreport about the ".gconf" directory to the GConf project: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=161209 (Andreas already brought up the issue there). That's fine and we will gladly do so, but I'm asking anyway to narrow down this bug as much as possible (Are Spaces the problem? Or the Ampersand?)
