 NAME
      Xinvest - a personal finance tracking and performance tool.

 SYNOPSIS
      Xinvest [X options]


 DESCRIPTION
      Xinvest

      With Xinvest you can:

      Centralize record keeping by storing all transactions in account
      specific files.

      Calculate total and annualized returns including the effects of buys,
      sells, and dividends. This provides a means of comparing the results
      of all accounts in a portfolio, be they CDs, bonds, mutual funds, or
      your checking account.

      View various transaction parameters such as share price, shares per
      transaction, transaction cost, transaction value (at current price),
      dividends, and/or cumulative and moving averages of the above. Plots
      are transaction based bar or date based x-y charts.

      View overall value weightings of accounts in a portfolio. Specify
      categories, what percent of an account is in that category, and which
      accounts are of interest and Xinvest will tell you the value and
      percentage of all categories in the defined portfolio. Predefined is a
      account category to view weighting, of accounts in the total
      portfolio.  Categories are hierarchical, so you can zoom into the
      makeup of your portfolio.  View in text and pie chart form.

      A Financial calculator with common equations is provided.  Included
      are FV, PV, FV of sum of payments, and periodic loan payments.

      Hopefully, all of this is displayed using  an easy-to-use, point-and-
      click interface.  There are no command line switches, dot files, and X
      resources are limited to color and font selection allowing you to
      tailor the look of the tool to your own preferences.
