[GNC] accounts list

[David Carlson]

Orinth,

I am assuming that you are using a computer that has a Windows 10 or 11
operating system.  GnuCash works somewhat like Word or LibreOffice.  You
create one data file. You need to save it with a unique name in a subfolder
under your user data folder.  It will have all the accounts that the
GnuCash setup assistant provides when you select the best account tree for
your use.  Then you may add some accounts and/or rename some.  Save it
again.  Now you can quit GnuCash and the next time you start GnuCash it
will open that same data file.

In Linux it works in a similar way,   but on a Mac it is a little
different,  but someone else can describe the difference.
