10:07:04 <tinloaf> hey guys. is there any gnucash-version prepared to be build against the latest gwenhywfar4-beta?
10:17:15 <warlord> Maybe trunk?
10:38:36 <tinloaf> looks like someone checked in non-compiling code ;-)
10:39:23 <tinloaf> no, forget that
10:39:29 <tinloaf> some old installation interfered there
10:43:32 <warlord> heh
10:45:51 <tinloaf> yeah. something tells me the makefile should prefer the lib inside the build dir to link instead of /usr/lib/someoldgnucashlib.so
10:48:21 <warlord> Patches always welcome.

13:05:18 <svetoslav> Hi, when I try to open I file in gnucash I get this error: Can't parse the URL file:///home/svetoslav/development/gnucash/doc/examples/abc.qif
13:05:34 <svetoslav> Is this a known bug ?
13:05:51 <svetoslav> I compiled the last version from svn , 2.14
13:06:04 <svetoslav> sry, 2.3.14
13:06:19 <warlord> Yes, you cannot open a qif file, you need to import it
13:06:59 <svetoslav> Oh I see ;)
13:07:00 <svetoslav> thanks
13:07:32 <warlord> you're welcome

14:19:09 *** JesseW has joined #gnucash
14:20:00 <JesseW> So, I'm trying to help out stabilizing the codebase for 2.4 ... but I'm not sure how to do it...
14:20:09 <JesseW> I think I remember a wiki page about it...
14:31:07 *** bentob0x has quit IRC
14:46:15 <JesseW> oh, this was it: http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Release_Schedule
14:50:33 <JesseW> it looks like improved documentation for the check printing new features (addresses...) is listed. Hm, maybe I'll try that...
14:51:16 <JesseW> also two bugs listed for CSV importer: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=602602, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611014
14:55:31 *** MrMaD1909 has left #gnucash
15:00:04 <warlord> any of the above are great
15:00:42 <JesseW> ok. I'll look into documenting the address feature.
15:01:47 <warlord> Documentation or bug fixing is great.
15:02:30 *** fell has joined #gnucash
15:02:45 <JesseW> hm, it's hard to explain the address feature -- it's so simple: it just prints whatever you have entered in those textboxes onto the check in the position specified in the check format.
15:02:51 <JesseW> I'm not sure what else to say.
15:03:02 <JesseW> But that doesn't exactly feel like it explains things very well.
15:03:17 <JesseW> Lemme check what the current docs say.
15:03:52 <JesseW> Where are the docs stored, again?
15:06:48 <JesseW> ah found it http://gnucash.org/docs.phtml

16:32:26 <JesseW> OK, I've posted a minimal documentation of the Address feature to the mailing list...

18:58:15 <acctswuser> hello, is there a way to setup the chart of accounts as to attach "tags" or "properties" to them, so that I could say "I want to include in this report entry sum of all accounts with tag 'A' or matching regexp pattern '^..A.[BC][^D]' ?
18:59:49 <acctswuser> or do I somehow use "placeholders" for that?
19:00:18 <jsled> no
19:01:22 <acctswuser> jsled: "no I do not use placeholders for that", or "no there is no way to tag accounts for later selection in reports/summaries"?
19:01:54 <jsled> both
19:03:27 <acctswuser> :)
19:04:30 <acctswuser> jsled: so I guess the only way would be to export the data somehow and do reports based on "tags" in an external app?
19:06:30 <warlord> Well, there's no way to even *store* tags in gnucash, unless you overload something like txn desc or some other field.

20:09:28 *** shade304 has joined #gnucash
20:10:14 <shade304> wondering what the color option on accounts does, is this for the register backgrounds, the numbers, or for reports..
20:11:17 <shade304> are there recommended colours for accounts, like a standard account numbers?
20:12:26 <jsled> color?
20:15:52 <warlord> I think it's a new option.
20:21:10 *** shade304 has quit IRC
20:53:37 *** shade304 has joined #gnucash
20:55:51 <shade304> if you "edit" the account properties
20:55:59 <shade304> it has a setting "account color"
20:59:52 <warlord> shade304: try it and let us know what it does!
21:00:01 <warlord> (I think it might alter the CoA printing color)

21:06:13 *** shade304 has quit IRC
21:47:48 <JesseW> So, where is the path to the help files specified?
21:54:31 <JesseW> seems to be HELPDIR
21:59:20 <warlord> It's assumed that gnucash and gnucash-docs have the same --prefix
21:59:59 <JesseW> so, it'll be in $prefix/share...?
22:01:11 *** BrownR has joined #gnucash
22:01:20 <warlord> Ummm, I think so?
22:01:37 <warlord> ( you can look at the build system as easily as I can )
22:02:12 <JesseW> I'm doing so. it *seems* like it's usr/share/gnome/help...
22:11:01 <JesseW> and that works.
22:18:15 <warlord> ok
