Didn't realize that I was calling the 'less' program when I was asking
ledger for a
balance. Just find it awckward to run the next command. This is especially
true when I am fixing entry problems. Also didn't realize that it was
to be expected.
I would have thought that running a command would produce a result and
set things
up for the next command rather than pausing and needing a quit command to
get ready for a return to the command prompt.
