Please make the numeric keypad's "Enter" key act like the other "Enter" key

2000-10-08 Thread Eric Hanchrow
In short: In the "Reconcile Information" window, I can enter digits with the numeric keypad, but I cannot use the numeric keypad's enter key. This is annoying. This is in 1.4.6, and I believe the behavior is the same in the current CVS sources as well. How to reproduce it: * Start GnuCash *

I'm unable to build the latest (0200 GMT 31 December) Gnucash, perhaps because I don't have a "guppi" library. When I do "./configure", all is well until I see checking for ghttp_request_new in -lghttp... yes Unknown library `libguppi' Unknown library `libguppi' ./configure: LIB

2006-07-15 Thread Eric Hanchrow
So I'm running Ubuntu, as the "Subject:" line says. I downloaded gnucash-1.9.8, and installed lots of development packages in order to get it to build. Then I ran "make check" and saw this: make[7]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/gnucash-1.9.8/src/gnc-module/test' ERROR: no code

How can I tell if gnucash is "strict" or "loose"?

doc/html/C/xacc-double.html says GnuCash can be configured to be strict about double entry, or you may configure it to be "loose." But I cannot figure out how to tell which way GnuCash is configured, nor how to change it. I've searched the entire source tree, and found that the code d

Why doesn't `configure' recognize my gtkhtml headers and libraries?

I'm trying to build GnuCash from CVS. I couldn't get "configure" to complete, because it said (rightly) that I didn't have the gtkhtml library. So then I looked around to see where I could get that library from. The README file says gtkhtml: version 0.4 and later should work. You can obtain
