org.gnucash.gnucash.plist in fact (no G)
Well, I can confirm that despite all my efforts, my pref is absent from
that file. Does this need to be removed for a pref to be added? (I'm
guessing not). I'm at a loss to find out what's going on...

Well, it looks like this is out of date.
For example src/gnome-utils/gtkbuilder/dialog-preferences.glade no longer
exists.
I can only see:
./gnucash/gtkbuilder/dialog-preferences.glade
./share/gnucash/gtkbuilder/dialog-preferences.glade
Following the instructions as best as I could, I'm still unable to make it work. I'm not
sure what to do next. I'm replicating exactly what is done for the
"enter-moves-to-end" preference, yet the pref does not work.
Where is the actual preference file located? (i.e., where gnucash saves its
pref for the next time it opens). I haven't been able to locate it, despite the
indications found in the wiki...
Yes, it's a bit out of date. The source file is
gnucash-git/gnucash/gtkbuilder/dialog-preferences.glade and it's moved to
build_dir/share/gnucash/gtkbuilder/dialog-preferences.glade by make/ninja and
installed in $PREFIX/share/gnucash/gtkbuilder/dialog-preferences.glade.
On MacOS application preferences are written to plists in
~/Library/Preferences. Ours is named org.gnucash.Gnucash.plist.
