08:54:31 <dgtlmoon> greets
08:54:43 <dgtlmoon> any tips for sending invoices via email (evolution?) from gnucash
08:57:21 <mikee_> I normally "print" them as pdf to file and attach the file.
08:57:28 <warlord> print invoice; print-to-pdf, then attach to email in evo.
08:59:30 <dgtlmoon> aaah fiddly
08:59:40 <dgtlmoon> thought a bridge might have existed :)
08:59:42 <dgtlmoon> all good
09:01:47 <lupine_85> no reason why you couldn't print-to-pdf to a fuse filesystem like /var/mail/<dest_email_addr>/<subject>.pdf and have them emailed automatically, accordingly
09:01:56 <lupine_85> well, maybe not /var/mail
09:02:01 <lupine_85> wonder if that fuse filesystem exists
09:03:03 <dgtlmoon> i have set it up before with a LPD driver that dumps it into a local file, greps out the email address of your client and jams it into evolution
09:03:09 <dgtlmoon> but my laptop died and i lost the script heh
09:03:33 <lupine_85> fuse would be the right way to do it now :)
09:04:09 <dgtlmoon> maybe, but then ide have to save the email address and fiddle around
09:04:21 *** ErKa has joined #gnucash
09:04:48 <lupine_85> fuse filesystems can be very clever, including stripping the destination email address out of a pdf / ps / latex invoice
09:04:59 <lupine_85> doesn't exist yet though
09:05:08 <dgtlmoon> sounds too hard
09:05:16 <dgtlmoon> ill end up recompiling the kernel just to send some invoices
09:05:18 <dgtlmoon> typical :)
09:05:42 *** mightybyte1 has joined #gnucash
09:05:44 <lupine_85> Filesystem in User Space
09:05:47 <lupine_85> :)
09:06:45 <dgtlmoon> i know what it is
09:06:47 <dgtlmoon> i think
09:06:54 <dgtlmoon> ive used it elsewhere.. fuse with SSH or something
09:07:56 <lupine_85> mm, sshfs is pretty awesome

09:16:26 <warlord> fuse is a user-space filesystem. no need to recompile the kernel, it's a regular user app.

15:09:53 <mightybyte1> Is there a reason why the QIF importer is different from the OFX/QFX importer?
15:12:26 <jsled> specifically? no.
15:12:55 <mightybyte1> It would be nice if the QIF importer UI was used for both.
15:13:07 <mightybyte1> The UI for OFX/QFX sucks.
15:14:29 <mightybyte1> If it was even just modified so I could select multiple transactions at once and assign them all to the same account, it would be a HUGE usability win.

16:01:09 <warlord> mightybyte1: amusingly, the OFX importer UI is "newer"
16:01:24 <warlord> (the main reason they are different is that nobody migrated QIF over)
16:01:36 <mightybyte1> Hmmm, that's not a good sign.
16:02:07 <mightybyte1> The QIF importer is MUCH faster for importing my credit card statements.

16:27:51 <warlord> that's interesting.
16:28:42 <mightybyte1> I have a lot of transactions that get assigned to the same account (for instance Expenses:Food:Restaurants)
16:28:44 <warlord> I think it's hard to compare speeds of different imports. Although, the QIF importer is.. different.
16:29:06 *** linas__ has quit IRC
16:29:20 <warlord> mightybyte1: do you have Bayesian Matching turned on?
16:29:25 <warlord> (in the ofx importer)
16:29:31 <mightybyte1> It's very slow and tedious to set that for each transaction individually when I could just CTRL-click (or something similar) to select all the restaurant accounts and then set them in one go.
16:29:44 <warlord> because then it should automatically map to accounts based on previous mappings
16:30:07 <mightybyte1> Yeah, it auto-matches some things, but in any given month there are always a significant number of transactions that don't match anything
16:30:45 <mightybyte1> And the bayesian matching only works on information from previous statements.
16:31:04 <mightybyte1> If I have 10 transactions from the same place in a given month, I have to manually set all 10 of them.
16:31:06 <warlord> this is true.
16:31:31 <mightybyte1> ...which actually isn't bad behavior since sometimes a given vendor can get classified under different accounts.
16:31:54 <mightybyte1> But the ability to set multiple transactions at once would handle that.
16:32:24 <mightybyte1> As the importer currently stands it might actually be faster for me to input everything by hand.
16:32:40 <warlord> unfortunately the importer architecture is significantly different between QIF and the 'generic' importer.
16:32:59 <mightybyte1> At least then the autocomplete would reduce each transaction to a few keystrokes.
16:33:14 <mightybyte1> Well, we don't have to copy the QIF importer.
16:33:14 <warlord> fwiw I never use the importer
16:33:23 <mightybyte1> Just the ability to select multiple transactions would be great.
16:33:45 <warlord> file a bug report; or better, send in a patch. ;)
