So it adds an ‘\’ escape to ‘\S’ but not to ’S’? — weird. Even if it was a bug or intentional to add an ‘\’, I’d think it would do it to all expressions as I can’t see any helpful purpose to adding it when you’ve already specified it. Did you file a bug report? Regards, Adrien > On Dec 21, 201

Dear John, I created a folder and copied all files in DMG to it. I started GnuCash but it didn´t finish the startup process, crashing. I tried again at least 3 times with the same outcome. Please see error log below. What can I do to have it working? Please see that GC 2.6.21 is working normall

I am also trying to set this up with Chase, where I have both bank and credit card accounts. I've tried and failed since first using GNUCash last year. Trying to understand what needs to be done. I see in the Wizard "UserId is assigned to you by the bank after applying for OFX DirectConnect"

Yes, I even tried that! But luckily no result; it would have been pretty weird if that had worked ;) > On 21 Dec 2018, at 23:37, Adrien Monteleone > wrote: > > Rob, > > Although it *shouldn’t* work right, did you happen to try just using ’S’ > without the leading ‘\’ and letting GC insert it

Rob, Although it *shouldn’t* work right, did you happen to try just using ’S’ without the leading ‘\’ and letting GC insert it? Is the result ‘\S’ as intended? Certainly, that would be a bug, but you might still get the result you want. (at least for that narrow case) Regards, Adrien > On De

Hi David, Thanks. Yes, I know about escaping special characters in regex. But I do not want to escape anything. And I don’t want to search for a \. \S is a regular regex content, matching any non white space character (a so called generic character type); but the expression editor changes my \

Rob, The "\" in Regex expressions is used as an escape character for the characters that are used as commands in Regex expressions to denote that the character following it is not to be interpreted as a command but to be interpreted literally. Hence if you wish to search for a "\" which is a comm

Hi, In the function Import Bills & Invoices, there is the option to use a custom regular expression to match the import file to the GnuCash fields. In that regular expression, I want to use regex generic character types (e.g. \S for non white space characters), and hex codes (\xHH). But when I

Note that for most users "maint" is the main-line branch. Master is for development of the next major release and once we get going on that (we've been too busy swatting bugs) it will be quite unstable. While we welcome testing as we work--indeed, the more testing the better--we must caution aga

I heard back from the user that requested a .deb package of GnC for Ubuntu 18.04.  Apparently it is working well for him. So, for others that might want to check this out on other debian platforms, here is a link to the folder on my Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1fV_fURy6c77e
