[GNC] keyboard shortcut - how to implement for open/close splits?

[George Riner]

Looking at C:\Users\George\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash\accelerator-map

I see a line that looks like this:

; (gtk_accel_path 
"<Actions>/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/SplitTransactionAction" "")

with nothing apparent to me about what keyboard key combination that 
maps to.

and looking around at the other lines in that file with semantic parts like:

     0e94fd0277ba11e8825d43e27232c9d4Action
     FileSaveAction" "<Primary>s"
     EmployeeNewEmployeeOpenAction
     Register2TestSubAccountAction

etc, etc. I can't make heads or tails of what to add to this file.  
Plus, it appears to me that every line in this file begins with a 
semi-colon, effectively commenting-out the entire file so that it has no 
effect whatsoever.

I'll keep looking....
