15:04:58 <bonez39> is it possible to take the content of the gnucash helpful....and store it on a PDA? as a .pdb file? or can it be copied out as raw text? I'd like to read and understand .. and read when I have a few minutes..reading it on my Palm device..

16:03:38 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
16:03:50 <warlord> rivad: you can stop asking the same question over and over and over again..
16:03:54 <warlord> The answer is no.
16:04:07 <warlord> bonez39: you could turn it into a pdf... not a pdb.
16:04:34 <rivad> If I had gotten an answer I would not have repeated the question.
16:06:36 *** rivad has left #gnucash
16:07:23 <warlord> if someone was here and awake they would have answered you! *blah*

21:50:01 *** LowC has joined #gnucash
21:52:27 <LowC> I'm attempting to install gnucash into windows, but I get the error: mv: cannot stat `/bin/aclocal*': No such file or directory
21:52:43 <LowC> Unfortunately, I can't seem to find an answer to fixing this online, could someone help?
22:22:41 <warlord> LowC: how are you trying to install gnucash?
22:34:43 *** ErKa has joined #gnucash
22:35:05 <LowC> warlord: via msys
22:36:15 <warlord> Oh, so you're trying to compile it?
22:36:17 <LowC> I put the .gz file on my desktop and installed msys to c:\soft\, then ran the install.sh file, but it always gives me that error and then aborts.
22:36:19 <LowC> yes
22:36:27 <warlord> (instead of just installing from the binary?)
22:37:04 <LowC> I'm following directions that I found for installing it. Unfortunately I know so little of linux, I barely know if I'm compiling or installing the binary.
22:38:22 <warlord> Um, www.gnucash.org -> downloads -> sourceforge -> unstable -> <windows installer>
22:38:27 <warlord> run the setup.exe
22:38:29 <warlord> be happy
22:39:13 <LowC> mm.. I'm liking that. Thank you.
22:39:33 <LowC> And my apologies for sounding like an idiot ;)
22:40:13 <warlord> Where did you find instructions for building?
22:40:41 <LowC> It was an email that someone had posted to a list. I thought it was to be found in the gnucash wiki
22:41:01 <LowC> But now I can't seem to find it.
22:41:32 <warlord> Um, it's on the wiki.. The wiki front page links to http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Windows
22:41:53 <warlord> And then early on: http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Windows#Q:_Where_is_the_binary.3F
22:42:40 <LowC> Then that's probably what I found before. Yes: Instructions for an (almost) automated build
22:52:36 <warlord> there are build instructions there, but there's also a binary.
22:54:39 <warlord> anyways, i'm heading out. Good night.

23:02:11 <LowC> It works great, thanks again warlord.
