[GNC] How to find what one can put in GnuCash configuration files?

[David Cousens]

Chris,

The user preferences are created using the Edit->Preferences item from
the menu. there are also meta files created here when yu open a new set
of books and there is some information set by the File->Properties menu
item specific to a particular book. AFAIK nearly all the content in
thee files is set from within GNuCash. Saved reports are
similarlyproduced within GnuCash. They however can be edited and are in
Scheme.
