[GNC] Keyboard shortcut for "New Bill" (Business > Vendor > New Bill)

[Eric Chapman]

Murugan,


Thank you very much! I did not know any of that, nor that shortcuts are 
called "accelerators" in GnuCash. Learn something every day. I added 
that into the file, closed GnuCash, reopened it, and the shortcut works!


I'm a happy camper, thanks to you!


Oh, I did find that, contra the info at 
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Keyboard_Shortcuts#Accelerators, on my Mac 
running OS 14.7.2 Sonoma,

it was not
~/Library/Application Settings/Gnucash/accelerator-map

where the file was, but rather
~/Library/Application Support/Gnucash/accelerator-map


Kind regards,
Eric
