tips for using gnucash

[Linux for blind general discussion]

It's possible that you can download your transactions directly from your 
bank. Most banks allow you to download csv files that you should be able 
to import into gnucash. Of course this won't work for everything, and it 
certainly won't work for cash transactions. I haven't needed to use it 
because my bank has a web-based unified system that imports from various 
types of accounts automatically, and I rarely use cash, so I just keep 
up with that based on what's in my wallet. But let me play with Gnucash 
a bit here and see what I can figure out. Perhaps it will work better 
than my bank's unified system.
