Simple Expenses Manager is a multi-user perl script allowing users to perform
no brainer expense management. SEM is by no means intended to be a hardcore
accounting package, but is intended for lay folk like myself who go blank even
at the mention of 'double entry book-keeping'.
It is intended for web administrators who want to offer their users this
service, but is useful for anyone who wants to track their expenses, and be
able to access it anywhere in the world. It also has an admin script
("exp_admin") for easy management of users and basic preferences.
11/Dec/2002: Back to the grindstone again! Not many changes in 0.9.0 but I thought I'd better release
the minor amount of stuff I've been able to do. Sorry for the break, but moving interstate does tend to
interupt your life :)
