It's not a big deal I was just looking for one and wasn't able to find 
an option like that.

If you want to know how my brain is working.....
If I mash ENTER in an open split transaction it moves down to the next 
split transaction. What does that mean? Does that mean the whole 
transaction was entered or just the split was entered? I'm never sure so 
I was looking for an audio confirmation when the entire transaction was 
committed like in the program I used before switching to  GNU Cash.  Now 
to be absolutely sure I close the split and mash ENTER again.
