15:48:08 <shade304> every time I try and load with (load-from-path "/usr/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/report/eguile-gnc.scm") in my config.user gnucash will close after partially loading
15:49:01 <shade304> I changed to owner of config.user to my username, and permisions to 770 and it still did not help
16:28:09 <shade304> i can get taxinvoice.scm to work, but not eguile-gnc.scm

20:13:29 <warlord> shade304: eguile should be loading automatically... Why are you loading it from config.user?
20:16:35 <shade304> I didn't know what I was doing
20:17:06 <shade304> I put eguile in the report directory/usr/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/report/
20:17:53 <shade304> then put taxinvoice.eguile.scm in the .gnucash directory
20:18:13 <shade304> with taxinvoice.scm
20:18:24 <warlord> What do you mean, "put eguile in there"? What version of GnuCash are you using?
20:18:59 <shade304> and then load taxinvoice in the config.user
20:19:05 <shade304> v2.2.9
20:19:19 <warlord> Oh, I have no idea if e-guile will work in 2.2.x
20:19:22 <shade304> fedora=first except for qcad/gnucash
20:19:27 <warlord> it's already included in 2.3.x
20:20:00 <shade304> I tried to compile it with the database backend but had no luck
20:20:43 <shade304> cd /usr/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/report/ then sudo wget http://www.fb-cs.co.uk/files/gnucash/eguile-gnc.scm
20:20:54 <warlord> Again, the db backend is new in 2.3.x, and doesn't work in 2.2
20:20:58 <shade304> that is how I put it ..
20:21:35 <warlord> Why not put it in config.user too? But as I said, I dont know if it will work in 2.2. Email the author?
20:21:36 <shade304> I know the directions said all that, but it took me a while to figure out what files went where
20:22:40 <shade304> when I put it in the config.user the program would not load
20:23:11 <shade304> so i settled on custom reports in .gnucash and eguile in /guile-modules..
20:23:23 <shade304> because at least it worked
20:23:48 <warlord> If it's working then why are you here?
20:25:41 <shade304> I was here posting about 3 hours ago, but working on it for several hours figured it out
20:25:42 <shade304> sorry
20:26:29 <shade304> i actually thought the problem was so simple that no one thought it was worth responding to :)
20:26:47 <warlord> I was asleep.
20:29:03 <shade304> I also didn't know what afk was about, but im up to speed now
20:32:20 <warlord> AFK == Away From Keyboard
20:32:49 <shade304> yeah, I know now :)
20:33:50 <warlord> :)
20:41:29 <skippuff54> <bump> hi. i am accounting for conferences that my gf attends for her graduate school. she spends her own money, then gets reimbursed from the school after turning in her receipts. should i put this in accounts receivable? also, she does not get reimbursed for alcohol (ie at restaurants), and there are some other smaller expenses like coffee, books & mags at airports that she buys for herself and wont turn in for reimbursement...shoul
20:42:51 <warlord> skippuff54: you got cut off at: reimbursement...shoul
20:43:32 <warlord> But the short answer is that I would just make an Assets:Reimbursible Expenses account and split the reimbursible expenses into there (and the non-reimbursibles into the appropriate Expenses accounts)
20:43:35 <skippuff54> should i just list those as regular expenses?
20:43:44 <skippuff54> ok
20:44:06 <skippuff54> so once she gets reimbursed, that will balance the asset category and we just write off the rest as an expense?
20:45:23 <warlord> Right.
20:45:53 <warlord> So it's Checking (or Credit Card) -> Assets:R-E and Ex:xxx .... and then A:R-E -> Checking when the check comes in
20:46:55 <skippuff54> ok, great. thanks so much!
20:53:40 <warlord> you're welcome

23:06:34 <jonathanm> hi... does anyone use Guile debugging in emacs? I downloaded guile-debugging-0.15.tar.gz and set it up (on Ubuntu with emacs22) ...debugging kind of works, I can single-step but breakpoints don't seem to work and there are other problems. Any suggestions would be
23:06:45 <jonathanm> appreciated! thanks...
