With Buck's friendly guidance, the user enters amounts spent on
certain expenses, amounts received from various sources, and other
financial transactions. Generally, Buck records transfers of
currency units and asset units from one category to another.

Buck's output is of the kind that is needed as input to tax forms.
It calculates the total amount transferred during a period of time
and the balance for each category. New for version 0.94: the
program calculates capital gain using the first bought first sold
method.

Buck unifies disparate accounting records into one database.
Transactions in foreign currencies can be incorporated into
the same database.

There is a Demo session (started by a click of a button). During
this session the program rapidly builds a database with several
months of financial records. So you can see right away, how it's
going to look after an extended period.

It's easy to use. Each task is achieved with just a few mouse and
keyboard clicks. It's also entertaining, finding all kinds of
interesting totals and looking at charts that show trends.
