Summarizing the wiki.gnucash.org page:
it lists the following keyboard shortcuts:
Ctrl+Alt+PgUp Ctrl+Alt+PgDown = switch between tabs in the main window
Tab = select placeholder account in the account page
Shift-RightArrow = expand tree view of place holder account in the
account page
Shift-LeftArrow = collapse tree view of place holder account in the
account page
Numpad_+ (or Shift-Numpad_+, not clear) = expand one level of
placeholder account in the account page
Numpad_- (or Shift-Numpad_-, not clear) = collapse one level of
placeholder account in the account page
[a brief explanation of the GnuCash calculator keys when entering amounts]
[a brief explanation of 'quick-fill' when when entering a description]
[a brief explanation of selecting an account when entering a transaction]
[a description of using the GnuCash menu to view all subaccount transaction]
Numpad_+ = increment date or check number fields (when in the field)
Numpad_- = decrement date or check number fields (when in the field)
Ctrl-Down = raise the accounts menu (dropdown list?) when selecting
transfer account
Shift-PgDown = jump to the empty transaction at the bottom of the register
[a few keyboard shortcuts in the Reconcile window]
and that' s about it!
and then a brief discussion of GTK bindings showing examples for Cut,
Copy & Paste, a functionality that is already implemented in GnuCash as
installed.
I don't know how I'm to use this information to know how to implement a
keyboard shortcut to <Menu><Actions><Split Transaction>
I'll keep looking around.

I really wish there was a keyboard shortcut to open/close the Splits
on the transaction I'm in.
Is there some edit I can make to a file somewhere in gnucash that
would make this effect?

Hi, George.
Have a look here:
Keyboard Shortcuts <https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Keyboard_Shortcuts>
wiki.gnucash.org <https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Keyboard_Shortcuts>
favicon.ico <https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Keyboard_Shortcuts>
<https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Keyboard_Shortcuts>
I use a Mac, so the file I’ve edited is
~/Library/Application Settings/Gnucash/acclerator-map;
and the necessary lines are:
(gtk_accel_path
"<Actions>/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ViewStyleRadioAction/0"
"<Primary>1")
(gtk_accel_path
"<Actions>/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ViewStyleRadioAction/1"
"<Primary>2")
(gtk_accel_path
"<Actions>/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ViewStyleRadioAction/2"
"<Primary>3")
which opens the Basic Ledger view with Cmd-1, AutoSplit Ledger with
Cmd-2 and Transaction Journal with Cmd-3.
I think this should be enough to get you started.
Regards,
Michael
