PocketMoney Quick Info** ====================== What does PocketMoney do? ------------------------- PocketMoney is an account tracking program. You can setup a checkbook account to keep your checkbook balanced. You can setup a car loan account to show you how much more you need to pay on your car. I set up a Pocket account so I can keep track of every cent that I waste. Documentation ------------- Included with this archive is the text only and rtf version of the documentation. WriteNow and MacWrite2.2 versions are available. A MS Word version should also be available shortly. All versions will be available by anonymous ftp in the newton/PocketMoney directory on spider.navsses.navy.mil. Supporting Software ------------------- clear_balance.pkg - resets the balance so that it can be recalculated. It is used mostly as a programming aid for me, but some of you might need to use it. PM_NCK.pkg - allows you to export your data in Newton Connection Kit to Quicken and MYM... AcctToPM.pkg - converts Accountable 1.3 data to PocketMoney data. Named AcctTo.sit on compuserve. PocketMoney_manual.rtf - it was distributed with version 1.0 and 1.01. I'm not including it with 1.02 because the additions_PM_manual.txt file covers all of the changes from the previous manual. This also reduces the download package size so it is cheaper for those of you who really only need the new PocketMoney package (PM102.pkg). How much does this fantastic package cost? ------------------------------------------ Shareware $20. Compuserve members have can register online GO: SWREG and look for ID:2760.
