No, the API is documented nowhere else besides the source, but the source documentation is prepared for doxygen processing whose result is online here http://cvs.gnucash.org/docs/HEAD/ > I've seen references to a Python-SWIG binding, what other options are > there besides C?

Python is what has been integrated most recently, see http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Python_Bindings and http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.gnucash.devel/23800 Theoretically Scheme should work as well for such scripted jobs with opening a file, changing something, and saving again. However I don't know how to do that :-) Regards, Christian _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
