Thank you, I didn't notice that tool before.  So much better now.  I'll
have to dig into the theme files later and find out how things get tweaked.

Do the ledger row colors themselves get set in there (right now they are
alternating green and tan)?  I didn't see any of the themes changing
that part in the preview on the tool.
