Well, this is certainly correct advice, but could anybody point to how to
make this programatically? I guess the whole change would be
cp cash-flow.scm cash-flow-monthly.scm
vim cash-flow-monthly.scm # add "/12" somewhere
vim ?/report.scm
Am I right? If so, where should I add that "/12"?
Thanks for any advice,
Matej

We have a criminal jury system which is superior to any in the
world; and its efficiency is only marred by the difficulty of
finding twelve men every day who don't know anything and can't
read.
