This new (May 97) account manager is my first attempt to release a proggy
in the amiga P.D. It's intended to be small, easy to use, and to generate
small account files.
There are still some things to add; however, this is a fully
fonctionnal (i.e., not crippled) version, that I use daily for my own needs.
Be careful as CBank isn't "state of the art" programmed:
It produces lots of enforcer hits; Althought I've been using it without problems,
I recommand you to be careful while testing it, you use it at your own risks!
Later versions will be more OS-friendly. (BUT I'll work on it if there IS a
need for it: email me to say if you need [or if you don't :-] a small,
efficient (? :) account manager like CBank)
Why CBank?
--) To satisfy O.S. 1.3 users :-),
--) In fact because of its low requirements (see the 'requires' field) it may
also satisfy OTHER users who want a small account manager (the executable file
is < 35 Ko, written in C).
If you NEED 256k colours interface with a lot of features, don't read
farther, you're wasting time. If not, why not take a look at CBank, and maybe
test it ? :p
--) Last but not least, CBank has (i think) unique features:
- several accounts together in >one< file format, allowing to make money moves
between accounts (in french: virements; sorry, this is much too specialized
english for me..) more easily, by *one* operation.
- i may write stats routines that take advantage of this (for example, "what
are my exepnses concerning Computers among ALL my accounts?") if I get
feed-back..
- compact file-format
--) Probably more 'normal' features:
-Full date in internal format ('1997' and not '97')
-Long labels, accounts names, comments/annotations (upto 255 chars)

Pourquoi CBank?
Parceque les utilisateurs actuels de l'os1.3 ont le choix entre
ABank ... et ABank (dont l'auteur a arrété le developpement).
D'autre part, les O.S. 2.0+ verront en CBank un concurrent a MUIbank et
Blitzbank (on peut rêver :-))))), vu que l'éxecutable cbank est beacoup plus petit,
(à priori :-))) et que la distribution inclus très peu de fichiers.
Avantages par rapport à ABank: ceux du C par rapport à AMOS :-) (que j'utilise
aussi d'ailleurs, no flames please!)
