I've been searching around the net looking for a book, site, module, anything that talks about managing personal finances with perl. Please recommend a book or site that deals with this subject. Or if there is a university that teaches a course; if not online, I'm in San Diego. The closest application I could find was SQL-Ledger/LedgerSMB, but that's clearly a business app. Excel by itself is not going to be enough (I refuse to go back to VBA!) And Intuit has FUBAR'd my beloved Quicken. So I'm going to write my own (dagnabit!) and I'd like to first learn what others have done. Thank you, shunyun
