Dennis, Progress, I guess.
Yes, $PATH is typed verbatim. You did that part right. You probably need to run gnc-fq-update and friends with the full path, e.g. /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-check gnc-fq-update usually requires sudo in front of it sudo /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-update because it wants to write to your system perl directories.
