Counting Transactions

Hi Derek,

zcat <yourgnucashfile> | grep "reconciled-state>y" | wc

8688  (haha beat that)

I only ever reconcile the bank account so this gives a decent 
approximation on how many transactions I have put through. Kudos to you 
and the team, it has been rock solid for all of them.

Took a little while to figure out as mc was transparently ungzipping the 
file, then cat was giving me binary noise lol
