Rarity: CLI personal accounting tool in Python3 - soleighlfred - Sep-21-2018

Hi, fellow Pythoners!

I'm an amateur programmer who needed a good, lightweight and configurable personal accounting program for myself, but I didn't find any that fit my needs, so I made my own. I use it myself on a daily basis so I just thought that maybe someone else could find it useful.

The homepage: http://txti.es/rarity/images
Download: https://bitbucket.org/solarcold/rarity/downloads/

Basically, what you can do with Rarity is input your daily financial operations (say, spent 10 dollars from cash to buy food, or earned 200 dollars of salary on my credit card, or withdrew some dollars from your bank account), and then generate reports to understand your moneyflow and see potential leaks, or how you are doing in general.

If you find it interesting, you can download an Alpha version (which is still stable enough from my experience) and try it out. You need Python 3 installed and you may want to install 'colored' module if you want nice colored output.

I'm planning to also make a PyQT version, but I want to figure out the command-line one first.

The distribution archive has a PDF manual inside which lists all possible commands with screenshots.

I would really appreciate any feedback and criticism, and I would be happy if this is helpful for anyone.

Thanks and have a good day!
