Any checkbook software?
I was doing searches trying to find a package for tracking saving/checking account balances. I've been using Microsoft Money 98, since 1997. Before that I used Quicken for DOS.
I'm hoping to find a curses based checkbook application, something like Quicken for DOS. Something very simple would be fine. Curses based would be better than GUI, since I could use it from a remote shell.
I see where some people have asked about GNUCash, but that it does not yet support the version of GNOME that Arch uses.
any suggestions?
thx!

Re: Any checkbook software?
Are there any web based solutions? I heard that budgetwise was being worked on as a web-based Ruby on Rails solution but I can't actually find any place to download it to try it. I figured there must be something PHP based?!

It's not CLI based, but I much prefer jGnash to GnuCash since the development on GnuCash has pretty well stalled. It's a Java-based dual-entry accounting program, and in the AUR if you want to try it out.

I like PLcash. It is also java-based, has better than jgnash import of Quicken files, and it is very light. I wish that it had client-server capability as jgnash, but for a standalone installation is very good.

Moneydance is supposedly very good:

The only thing is that it cost $29.99 but so do other commercial packages.

I use Moneydance and I love it. KMymoeny is good too if you use KDE.

I use, and love, grisbi
http://www.grisbi.org/
It is GPL. It looks great. It is getting better all the time.
It has a Euro bias (by that I mean the default is to use the Euro for everything), but you can change everything to US $s if you like. It also has support for many other currencies.
