WISH Checkbook is a simple home finance manager written in Tcl/Tk, requiring Tcl and Tk 8.5 (or greater, when there is an even greater version). Features include, among others, the following:

* Quick start-up of new accounts.

* Multiple accounts, and transfers among them, can be easily managed.

* Scheduled transactions help you avoid overlooking bills; these transactions can be modified permanently (from the scheduled transaction window) or temporarily (from the account entry window).

* Categories (optional, not required!) are automatically listed and can be quickly retrieved.

* Transactions can be searched for by date, check number, transaction name, or category.

* Accounts can be exported as tab-delimited or comma-delimited text, or as HTML tables.

* Uncleared transactions from one account can easily be rolled over into a new account.


If you try this program out, please let me know if you (1) like it, (2) find any bugs, or (3) both!
