[GNC] Command line quotes still not fixed

[David G. Pickett]

So no idea what is default if I never set/changed it?

I pasted in the actual plain text output of the command but the smart kids reformatted it!  Should I need training to send plain text? If this was a web app, they might have buttons for plain text block inclusion, but it is simple email, maybe html but more probably barefoot ESMTP.

What default namespace, look in YOUR security editor - as far as I know it's whatever you set up.  I have a vague recollection that it doesn't really care and will be happy with just a single character i.e. --namespace=x but don't quote me on that.
By the way your original email could do with some halfway decent formatting - see what the mailing list received at https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2023-April/106230.html you might like to tweak that to make it readable in future.

I saw that later.  What's the default namespace?

And you'll see there's a whole other thread on this - https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2023-April/106181.html.  Bug report at https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798815

If you include a namespace parameter for now it will work.
