Description of Home Budget
--------------------------
Home Budget Finance manager is designed in the traditional envelope
system where you set aside a portion of your income for various
expenses. 

It's a simple easy to use concept for budgeting. Each month you create
budget transactions automatically that move your income into various
accounts that allocate these funds. Just like putting your income into
various envelopes, where each envelope is for a different purpose, ie one
for Groceries, one for Car Repairs and so on. Then when you actually
spend money on Groceries or Car Repais, it comes out of the money in that
envelope and is also recorded against the real fund account (ie CheckBook,
Bank, CreditCard etc.).

Home Budget allows you to do this quickly and easily, with:
    
    o Fast Intuitive interface (written in C++)
    o Quick One line entry per transaction
    o Tracks Credit card spending
    o Displays Charts/graphs for many combinations of data
    o Summarize, Print and view totals
    o Schedule autopayments
    o Summarize Networth including Assets.
    
This program is friendly with no nag screens. A registration fee 
of $12 U.S. (cheap!) is requested, see license.txt for more information.
