Hi Kevin,

Regardless of the editor used, you could benefit from the alias feature 
provided by ledger.

After defining the Expenses:Car:Petrol in the beginning of the file as 
follows


Expenses:Car:Petrol
>     alias petrol
>

you only have to type petrol as account when posting. 

Obviously if your editor supports completion, this provides even more 
benefit.

HTH,

Guido
