12 GnuCash is a personal accounting package that allows you to record and
13 track income, expenses, assets, and investments. It supports reconcili‐
14 ation, has substantial reporting capabilities, and is extensible using
15 guile. It can import QIF data from Quicken(TM) and many other commer‐
16 cial accounting packages. It uses GTK+ and GNOME to provide an attrac‐
17 tive user interface, and has extensive online help.
