[GTALUG] Linux and on line banking?

[Karen Lewellen]

Hi Steve,
Which command line Linux tool did  You use for this adventure?
I am pleased to know someone still has bell landline.
In spite of my doctors and my best effort bell  not only still  continues to 
refuse me, they prevented teksavy from installing the service, after 
pocketing more than a dozen installation appointment fees.
I am at the ccts now, but given analog is a medical need, its absence is 
rather a physical and emotional mess for me if I am honest.
Cheers,
Karen
