[GNC] Defining Keyboard shortcuts for Menu Functions

[Lincoln A Baxter]

Thanks Jean...

I tried this as follows (while GC was not running):

   ; control-shift-c for csv import:
   (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/gnc-plugin-csv-import-
   actions/CsvImportTransAction" "<Primary><Shift>c")
   ; control-shift-o for Ofx import:
   (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/gnc-plugin-ofx-actions/OfxImportAction"
   "<Primary<Shift>o")
   
Then I ran GC, and Control-Shift-o and Control-Shift-c  did nothing. 
FWIW I'm running GC version 4.13 on Debian stable. (bookworm) using the
Xfce window manager.

Thanks for trying, I've decided I can live with  Alt-f-i-o  which does
seem to work.
