How to add reports into Gnucash

I'd really like a report that allows me to see a set of accounts (one account per row) with several months' (e.g. January, February, March, etc.) totals in columns. To that end, I was trying to look at the monthly cash flow report that a user submitted a while back (see http://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2005-March/012798.html), but I ran into troubles getting the report to load in GC. I am running 2.2.9 under OS X 10.5.8 using Fink (so my stuff is in /sw/). I tried putting the report file in the /sw/{...}/reports/ folder without seeing the new report. I tried following the instructions to place the scm file in my home directory, and then add a config.user file in ~/.gnucash/ that loads the scm file, using the command:

(load-from-path /Users/david/toodles.scm)

Unfortunately, toodles doesn't seem to load; the report doesn't appear in the menu, even after closing both Gnucash and X11.

Can someone advise? Is that report actually still valid? Is there a more recent version? Should I be barking up a different tree?

TIA,
David
