This underlines a previous discussion that the wiki needs some work. N one has 
yet stepped forward to edit the wiki.
I admit that I can write documentation if the facts are provided (and I don't 
write code)
and like the rest of Gnucash users with my skills, I'm keeping them hidden 
like a light under a bushell.
Any volunteers with time to start a wiki edit to supplement those FAQs with a 
version which uses the benefits of the wiki system to navigate them?

but computer language design is just like a stroll in the park.
