[GNC] Date column width

[David Carlson]

I like William Prescott's comment.   Alas, as you noted, each register ' s
window settings are memorized individually.   I am not sure if there is a
default width for the date column in the default section, as this is highly
dependent on your display capabilities and some other factors.
