SpendThrift: Future Plans and Goodies

since the release of SpendThrift 915a, new users seem to have been coming out of the woodwork, and that's rather exciting. as this is the first really useful piece of software i've ever created, it's something of a new experience, too. i guess that those of you who've just keyed in all your account info don't really want to hear that you're relying on the work of a neophyte (this is why there's an export function).

so, anyway, i've been getting a lot of feature suggestions over the past week (thanks!), and that's going to inform what i do with it from here. this whole thing started for my own use, but it already does everything i need--so now i can work on what other people need. the overwhelming majority of the requests focus on ease-of-use, and more to the point, efficiency of use. the paltry enhancements in the last version hopefully helped that cause a little, but hopefully there will be some more progress in the future. the idea is to make it easier and faster to use, so that it's harder and harder to fall out of the habit of using it, which is about the only easy thing to do with things like quicken. anyway, i don't want to make promises, yet, since all this relies on my less-than-elite skills. but between that, and trying to make it not crash in 10.2.x, i've got plenty to work on.

anyway, the other reason i was writing this was that i noticed that a lot of the emails are coming from overseas, and i'm sure it must be somewhat off-putting to use a program with a big green american dollar sign on it (even if it does have goofy little wings). so, as a result, now there's some new icons available: the pound symbol for the UK, and the euro symbol as well. both with goofy little wings. enjoy!

spendthrift alternate icons (32k). just copy & paste onto the existing application. you'll need to remove it from and re-add it to the dock to get it to update there.
