I might give up some of *ledger's power but by using a . instead of : I can
leave my hand on the numeric keypad when by using the colon I would require
a hand shift three times for each such account number. I, disdaining, hand
shifts decided a period would suffice. Sorry - - - I find the amount of
time that I have to spend on paperwork onerous and would far rather do
other things, yet the information that is developed is crucial. I,
therefore, seek very much to minimize the time and effort. There are likely
many other things that ledger could do for me but as the few things I have
needed to do have been quite challenging to cause to function as I needed
leaving me to assume that my time is better spent on getting things done
and using brute force techniques rather than neat solutions because I lack
the free time to add even more things onto my to do list!

Thanking you for the idea - - others might find it quite useful!

Dee
