OK, I'm willing to take a run at this, Say I do something like (new simpletable% (table table))) where table is [for now] a list of lists where the first element of each is the column header Should it be a list-control or an editor?

One obstacle would seem to be the lack of a DataGrid/JTable/TreeView type widget in the GUI. Such a widget seems most necessary for data presentation and manipulation in such an app. How would you suggest one get around this limitation? </blockquote> </div> Write one! That sounds awesome! Oh... that's not the answer you were looking for? For what it's worth, I would be absolutely thrilled to abandon GnuCash for a PLT product, and you're right: the missing piece is a table GUI element.
