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

[jbonnett at internode.on.net]

Here are some notes I have on how I achieved this on Windows 10

For Windows users, I found that accelerator-map file in

C:\Users\john\.gnucash\accelerator-map

%APPDATA%\GnuCash\accelerator-map

and a backup at

%APPDATA%\GnuCash.bkp\accelerator-map

I tried editing the first one. These are the lines I changed.

 (gtk_accel_path
"<Actions>/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ViewStyleAutoSplitAction"
"<Primary>2")
 (gtk_accel_path
"<Actions>/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ViewStyleBasicAction" "<Primary>1")
 (gtk_accel_path
"<Actions>/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ViewStyleDoubleLineAction"
"<Primary>4")
 (gtk_accel_path
"<Actions>/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ViewStyleJournalAction"
"<Primary>3")

On restarting GNC, nothing had changed so I tried changing the second one.
That did the trick when I restarted GNC. I think you may need to do both to
have the change propagate over reboots. You will note I also added the
double line toggle too.

Best Regards,
John
