Ok, I have changed 'Int' to 'Interest' in revision 18587. There was more than 
one occurrence, so I changed all of them to be consistent.

There was also one time 'Div' in the portfolio action items. The comment with 
it said this to mean 'Dividend', so I changed that one as well. But in other 
places in GnuCash, the word 'Dividends' is used and not 'Dividend'. So I 
wonder, should the action item also be in the plural form ?
