Editing the tax report

Actually, the tax category specific stuff are the files:
src/scm/report/txf-export.scm and src/scm/report/txf-export-help.scm  These
are just lists with the details of the categories and the help.  The txf (Tax
eXport Format) has allocated codes for non-US use, but whether any have
actually been defined and are in use for other countries, I really can't tell
you.

If you don't need the txf export feature, you can just tag any account with
the "Tax Related" boolean, and generate your report.
