Actually, there's one prior question: when a user first starts evo, 
how does it find gnucash? Does it look to see if gnucash is installed,
and if so, tries to start it?  Does gnucash register itself with some
gnome directory as a source of calander data?  I really don't want 
user to have to read a HOWTO to figure out how to wire up the one to 
the other.  If both are installed, and the user uses both, then the
one should be visible to the other.
