Introduction

Welcome to the Wiki of Mike Bray

This Wiki has been created to pass on information, code and opinions. I hope you find it useful.

The Infinite Kind developer, Sean Reilly, makes changes to Moneydance on a regular basis, adding and altering features. He also sometimes depreciates some of existing APIs. This can introduce errors into my code which means existing extensions will not work with newer builds until I release a new version of the extension. It is possible that changes I make will stop an extension working with older builds of Moneydance. This is yet to happen but be warned it could.

Please note that the extensions in the download are unsigned. Once TIK verifies them I will upload them to the downloads area and remove this note.

The Wiki/site is split into a number of different areas:

  1. Information about the Moneydance Personal Finance package (see Moneydance)
  2. Extensions for Moneydance developed by Mike Bray (see Extensions)
